My eldest is 22 with 5 years clean driving record and still paying over Ł400 for a 1.6 Focus.

Youngest is 19 with 2 years clean record and paying over Ł800 on a 1.25 Fiesta.

sounds better than my Ł2700 for my fez

think this is fred wood might be wrong he has a workshop in stonehaven and it looks like the same place. he is a good guy if it his him. what kinda fez is it. imo i think a modern car is better for track car and keep classics such as this for keeping standard

depends what kind of project you want mate but theres a rs16i for sale in ellon needs a full restoration but as i say it all depends what you want

callummarshall

it would be a mk5 yeah it would be as standerd an restored sounds like it needs a bit of work was just wonderin if they were easy fixes on the car

callummarshall

its a bit far tbh but sayin that the fez is in inverurie

bythomson

as easy fixes goes it doesnt seem to bad the engine would be easy fixed as its just a new loom and ecu( supplied) and the rest is easy enough you could work on body work relativly easy and cheaply it just takes time and being a mk4 theres a load of parts available could be a good project but wouldnt spend to much maybe 550 600
