Any shockers? My confession is: The Gull Winged Fiesta Si that had been converted from a 5 door with leather etc and yellow wheels, i was considering buying back in 2006    I even looked at it   Gladly i saw sense  Anyone else had similarily dodgy taste?

| the way forward clearly is our way Op   The 306 DTurbo i had was actually a nice car, comfy, supprotive seats, good to drive, then i found out the exhaust was a bodge of a 1.4  all the boost pipes started falling off, , the fans were snapped off and to top it all, the headgasket went bang so i sold it for £285

my first 1.0 4 geared fiesta/bag of wank 306 gti-6 has been to date the most solid and reliable car i've ever had. then again all my cars have been solid and extrememly reliable. I'll be in shock if one of my cars doesn't start or actually breaks down in the future!

All my cars have at one point stopped. Like this morning my starter motor dropped off the pickup.

um, my first (well road legal car) was a fiat reggata 1.6 85 SUPER (basicly a big uno saloon):lol: was totaly mint but the engine was sooooooooo crap a 1.1 fiesta would give it a good race it had electric everythin, none of it worked ooh i also had a pinky red austin maestro with the doors brush painted red, i left it in the dodgyest carpark with the keys in it, when i came back it was still there  i wasnt happy.a proton 1.3 (wayback before protons named there cars) was a proper shed but it was the sort of car i realy didnt care about i never washed it and never did any maintenance i realy abused it and it never once let me down, i was a little sad when no 1 would buy it so i had to scrap it

3 Fiestas only!! Sad I know My first, purchased as a 1.1 bonus, I added full XR2i kit and interior see below, owned for about 5 years!   I also had an XR2i for about a month which gave up to the dreaded tin worm. Finally my Si which I've had for about 4 years. No real shockers luckily.

i confess to slapping 15" alloys, clear rear lights, angel eyes onto a bog standard 1.1 fiesta.... i had plans to fit a 5" slash cut exhaust too good job i got laughed at (by my brother, girlfriend and one of my mates) when it turned up... then i grown up, no major hiccups since then, although had a few frowns on FT about my current wheel choice. I never went back
