Bert1701 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Hi all, Thought I'd follow suit and post up my previous cars. When I first passed my test I had a 1.2L Corsa, didn't have it long enough to take pictures as it died after a month of ownership. Then I bought a Mk3 Fiesta LX 1.8 Diesel, which is in the ownership of my mom now, awaiting a new engine due to a busted camshaft: After that I traded up for a Mk5 Fiesta Ghia 1.6 Zetec, best car I've ever owned. Never had a problem with it, til I crashed it. Still my favorite car. After the crash I bought a Mk5b Escort LX 1.8 TDi: It was too smoky and noisy so I traded it in for my current car. Mk5b Escort XR3i 1.8 Zetec: I've changed the wheels since the pictures were taken, and have lots more work to do on her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert1701 Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 Oh yes, never again would I even think about buying a Vauxhall. I never liked it to start with TBH, but I was impatient (sp?) and just wanted to be able to drive! I'm sticking to the blue oval from now on! Unless someone manages to tempt me with something German in the future... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt86 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Didnt you get the first Escort off ebay or something? Sure I was watching it off there. There XR3i looks alot better. Get some pics up when you have done a few more things up, with the new wheels up etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 XR3i looks tidy and the best yet IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert1701 Posted July 26, 2007 Author Share Posted July 26, 2007 I bought the Diesel from a garage as a runround. Found the XR3i on fleabay but as the bloke was local I convinced him to take it off ebay and bought it normally. Yeah I like it a lot, I'm sure once I've got all the niggly little electrical faults done it's going to be my best car yet. I'll post some updated pics when I've got a few more things done, like got the dents smoothed out and possibly lowered a bit. I'm planning some clear indicators and side repeators for the near future too. Thanks for all the comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
