I think the user NUTTINRILLA on here may have owned that car at one point? If not him, someone he knows maybe? (appologies if im wrong)

Im sure i have pics of it on my home computer from a few years ago, deffo belonged to someone in the Ayrshire area though. Had diff wheels etc at that time iirc. Will check tonight.

It's a cheap Irish plate... you can (or at least could) pick them up for less than a ton!

I spoke to a guy who had it when it had black wheels on it. Think his name was Brian (though im not sure) Sure he was from kilwinning way. His mate had a mk2 fiesta xr2 with an rs2000 engine in it and they used to race up n down the shore in them. Looked quite tidy then

the xr2 with the rs2000 engine is still around. he also has another xr2 think it is a mk1 and has Carlo's old moonstone saff.
I think I remember seeing FOI about, though I am not sure it was from Kilwinning, maybe from Stevenston
