after i had my use out of that got hold of a 1.3 l reg fiesta, which i bought for £70 with some tax n test still on, was a sound runner but had about 3 pages of mot fail, basically everything was rotten underneath so scrapped it.

next car was my 1.4 seat ibiza which i got for a part ex to clear from a dealer for £400 which i loved, one careful elderly owner with 50,000 miles.

Then decided to buy my mates seat cordoba coupe 1.6sx with kent cams and other mods.

with it being cammed it was a bit too thirsty for me.

 

ended up swapping it for an escort cabbie 1.8 zetec

had the cabbie for a few months, good solid runner. Couldnt get used to owning a cabriolet, just wasnt my thing and being un-employed at the time couldnt afford the tax that was due on it. so it went.

 

Ended up swapping the cabbie for rs2000 mk5 2.0 with a canny fella on this forum.

 

had no problems with its and i love it :D this one will be staying for a while.

i think hes getting rid of the cabbie, think he mentioned he works out of town so he needed something a bit more economical. think hes after a diesel ,
