Default Hoping to come back to an old ford!

Hi all,

Not been on here for around 6-7 years now after letting my Moonstone 3 door go one of my biggest mistakes to date I think, that and starting my own business anyway!

Some of you may remember me/the car?



RSNISSAN/Andy has had to put up with and sort out many many other cars I've had since then so he'll be over the moon I'm after another problematic car! Boxxer/Mike I'm still in contact with from time to time also Guzzler/Mat I pester once or twice a year!


I'm looking to get back in an oldish ford now as I miss all the pops,bangs,whistles and just the why they drive and look, but this time I'm after a Fiesta RS Turbo I think. After mopping Mat's one before a mag photo shoot many years ago I've had a hankering for one so nows about the time I got one. Would have to be black or grey with decent shell and paint, engine I'm not fussed as I'd be tinkering anyway!

I've got a bit on a special road legal TRX450R that I'll be letting go in order to get the FRST so I'll put a detailed post up in the for sale/swap bit once I've got a little more time and pictures of all the parts that come with it.

But here is just a little shot of it so you get the idea.




Looking forward to getting back in the loop.

Many thanks

Lee

Yeah I was a nice one! It's still about I think. That picture is about 6-7 years old now. I spent thousands building that car!

What ya think?
