Default I'm driving a Fiesta ST500 number 1/500

Collected this today, an end of lease fiesta st500 the first one in black, 08 plate with 30,000 mile on it, an had to drive it 120 mile to auction, its in good condition with a little kerbing on the wheels and just so you all know its gone to bca auction at enfield. I will put some pictures up on here when I get home tomorrow, but this is number 1 out of 500. So if you want it go buy it. Not sure when it will go through the sale hall, maybe a week or so, i've had to block out the reg because of the data protection act. I could lose my job otherwise.

I'm pretty sure all the Fiesta ST500s have a little plaque by the heater vents that ALL say 1/500. They're not numbered like the FRS/CTR etc. iirc.

Yeah, the plaque indicates its 1 of the 500 that were made in total, not its the first of the 500 made.

Pieces of shite.

Nothing 'magical' about a new Ford nowadays.

It's the same with dc2 integras , they've got an individual numbered plaque but it doesn't mean shit as they were put on after they were all built plus some were duplicated ...or so the man at Honda told me when I was up there once lol
