When I bought it, it had kerbed wheels, M3 mirrors, standard rear lights a dingy interior and a standard and dirty engine bay...but potential ![Wink](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
8 months later, 1 rebuilt gearbox and a lot of fun and it looks like this... I'm unsure if it's had a respray in previous years, although nothings documented. The below pictures, where it's clean are just washed pictures- no wax, no polish. For an old girl, she's doing ok! Now back with green stripes
It's currently getting a full head rebuild (just to standard spec) and the rest of the engine is pretty low key, for the moment with a Stage 1 superchip, induction kit and full s/s scorpion system

Got a few plans for it before the shows, aiming to have everything sorted for F.I.T.P and the engines getting a new colour scheme as I took all the red piping off and then with the head coming off and work being done everything looks really tatty and I fancy a change.
Comments welcome.
Thanks,
Mish

Cheers for all the comments- TBH, the respray of the engine components will probably be in simalar colours- nothing lairy, but I'm going to take a bit more time and do it better this time
![Big Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)
As for being a he or a she... I'm not too sure- it hasn't got a name although everyone nicknamed it Felicty... great!
![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
Just can't wait for the head to come back from the rebuild and to get it on the road again

Each to their own indeed. She looks very well though, always had a soft spot for these after having a go in one years ago

The chatter is quite loud, but on the vid, to me, it strangely to me sounds like it's 'dumping'! It chatters properly in real life, but I'd love it if it was a bit more high pitched. Just not running much over standard boost though!
Massivewangers, I wasn't singling you out, just realised how I'd wrote it! I'm glad you put your honest opinons

Cheers Twins...
Have to say..think I'd rather have your S2! I'd still love an S2 so I'm undecided at the moment whether to keep the Fiesta and head for 200bhp or invest money elsewhere!
