My New Blue Oval Project...

[_Tom]

Hmm Im undecided. Im too old to get away driving that now..lol

If you're going to make money seems all good though. Awesome spec too.

 

[Philip.]

Good purchase!
I really do have a real soft spot for these.

I also looked at a white one that was local a couple years back.

I agree with you dude! Soft spot for a white one.

I've never seen one ever with sat nav, didnt even know you could get it

 

[Sir_Dave]

I love these tbh, drive brilliantly - although i would have to have a blue one!! I'd perhaps look a bit old/grey for one these days as well lol.

Never seen satnav either, must be mega rare

 

[rctempire]

Gally, I love your Ford love.

Car looks excellent.

 

[Thrust-Rated]

I've heard the bumpers can be removed easily too shame really

Like you say though, none of that happens where you live so you are ok.

I can't even argue with that! But yeah it's worth quite a few bob in this spec.

Yeah I remember the option from years ago but not seen it in any Fiesta. Great option. In most cases if they've specced something like folding mirrors they've ticked a few boxes.

It does feel young but it looks the part I think. It's a great drive... well with these horrible tyres it's interesting but new ones on this month. Need to pick up a set of winters aswell for the front.

Cheers mate. Nice to still be in a Ford also.

Tbf look at those Vxrs. Anything can be removed, no different to any bumper or cats etc. Just depends where you stay really.

Thanks again for the comments guys. I'll update the thread with new parts.

 

[MatthewR]

Sell it to me in November! What mileage is it on?

 

[Scrooge]

The red dash is worse. You can change it to black for pennies though.

 

[jamie rigby]

nice car but who told you it was 170bhp? lol, standards with just filters and exhaust manifold and system mods made ~150bhp at RSTuning last time I seen

 

[James Mk1]

Seriously nice car, really like the STs. Just bought myself a mk7.5 White Fiesta Zetec-S 1.0 Ecoboost. Really enjoying the car so far, a lot punchier than you'd expect! Considering one of these next, I love them in white with the blue side stripe (no OTT stripes). General concensus is they are gutless in standard form. Just de-cat catback and air filter brings it to 170 bhp you reckon? Good buy!

 

[Xanda73]

I don't even notice it. White with Red inside is really nice but rare.

Yeah climate was an option Stevo. Quite rare as are most of the options, i've not seen another one with nav.

Seem to remember the nav was something like a £1000 option, on a £15.5k car, hence not many people went for them.

Car looks great - a mate had one a few years back - a lot better built than the Clio.

It came with a print out. Just gobbledygook to me tbh. It might have been remapped also which is common. It feels quicker than other STs i've driven.

Personally power is irrelevant. I just know some guys are interested. It's probably running 140bhp after all these years. Lot of fun though.

 

[Ian_182]

Fair play gally that looks very nice.Ill go with daniel on the wheels though,silver would look very clean and remove the NED in you.

 

[Gally]

I won't do them Silver. Dark Anthracite may look a tad classier!

 

[Gaz85]

keep them black more appeal when you come to sell to the younger folk :rasp:

 

[Rob]

"Thanks Rob for going to see it"

"I'd like to say thanks to Rob for going to see it"

"Rob went to see this for me first as it was 300 odd miles away"

Any of the above would have been acceptable, you Scottish feck.

Get the wheels done antracite Kevin. Personally, I like it.

 

[_Tom]

Haha good lad Rob. I thought the thread would have been full of praise..

 

[Gally]

I text you you funny clothes/hat wearing kent c-unit! What this thread doesn't know is the former owner stayed round the corner from Rob and seems to dress exactly the same. Was rather strange.

But yes should Rob ever have the balls to venture north of Watford I owe him big time. Thanks Roberto!

 

[_Tom]

Should have bought this tbh -

http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?710535-2003-Mk1-Focus-RS-(53-Reg)-£5500-ONO

Infact Im gutted ive bought the TT.

 

[Gally]

Obviously a tad more difficult when the car goes on sale 4 days after you pick up your new one...

Oh and the insurance isn't £200 a year.

I want it..

 

[Gally]

Can't believe you bought a QS over an FRS though!

 

[banther]

I love your little buys.

Top work!!

Not for me - preferred the FRP, but thats already been covered!

Good luck with it all.

 

[_Tom]

I know. I will probably own one next tbh. Like you I should make money on this car. Then i'll look at them again.

Cheers mate. Indeed the Frp is a very special little car. Sadly it now has to be a weekend car imo. I can see how they become garage queens.

Indeed mate, aslong as you don't down too far where is the harm?

 

[MattT]

Yeah! Still miss my old one!
Only thing I'm not crazy about is the black wheels! Standard silver ftw!

 

[Gally]

Silver wheels would probably work with the privacy glass and with the front and back plastics going black (not gloss). Would still side towards anthracite. Although Gaz made a great point about future selling although a lot may be put of with the rude boi look!

Thanks for the comments mate. You're one was immaculate!

 

[Gally]

Oh and i'll probably make a video after I pick up a manifold. More fun!

 

[Scrooge]

Are you looking on Pistonheads already?

I love the fact that anything South of Manchester is Kent, you Highlander c unit. Also, I met Rob the other day can confirm he is a funny clothes/hat wearing boyo. Who likes to say "wut?" a lot.

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

Kevs a wee dick

Robs a chavvy vest wearing hatted dick

JD is a posh northernsouthern dick

and i love you all x

Do like the Fez though Gallister... how long has this one got? your drive is like the green mile to cars.

I imagine until after xmas... or until Emma tells me to put another few k in our savings.... Joking aside i'm really liking it and love that it already has a few expensive mods so fancy messing around with it a bit and adding some little bits then sell on for profit later.

 

[Gally]

Funnily enough that seems like a terrible place to sell one of these. Ebay (reserve price of course) and AT seem best although AT costs a fortune!

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

You're the best addition to it xx

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Sorry if I've missed this or read it wrong, but have you still got the FRP too?

With the sat nav system do you still get decent sound? The Sony system is great

Flol!

No Frp mate. Sound quality is superb, it's a very expensive unit and has extra speakers in the ST from memory, maybe it's the facelift. The sony one was a late option on these. A lot of 08>09 had them and the ST500 as standard. I think they look a little out of place though.

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Ye my mate had the Sony unit in his 57 plate zetec S it was the limited edition green one though.
Was a decent sound system in it considering it was standard speakers and that head unit

 

[Gaz85]

well just seen the chav mobile in the flesh as I said Kev looks a very good buy, was surprised at how well it went. Sounded awesome as you ripped out my street, certainly doing the cars image justice :rasp:

 

[Gally]

Lols! You were begging me to do it!

It does bring out the child inside. Wantzzz manifoldzz. I'll see about a chav spec video soon!

Iron remover pics on Thursday.
