Hello as i dont have a fiesta anymore i throught i would show you all the ones i did have and had a load of fun doing, hope you enjoy.

First off here's my bros one when he got it, XR2I Zetec

Couple of cracking Fiesta's you've had there.
I think they're even more impressive given how they looked when you first got them!
Top work mate well done!
£650 for that FRST is a massive bargain in my opinion! Looked pretty clean even when you first got it.
