Default Back in a Ford!

Having recently sold my Saab I was on the lookout for a cheap run around. My mate sent me a message with a link to a car for sale and I decided to take a look at it. All was good so I bought it




Ok it's a bit 1990s chav but for £400 with a mint mohair roof and a set of half decent wheels I can't argue!

Looks like a nice find. MFi or EFi?

Cheers guys! Is a tidy car to be fair to it. It's an MFi Rob.

Needs a bit of lowering first off I think!

Think most people would have jumped at that for £400.

Lowering, number plates and ambers are on the list. The roof is staying however, it's mint and there is a reciept for £550 for it so sod paying that to get one in black lol. It's also a little different too
