Name is Josh but alot of people know me as crofty, so either or is fine by me.
Always been into the car scene and have owned a Mk4 Escort Cab in the past.
Last Thursday I came across a Mk3 Fiesta which had been sat on a ladies driveway for just over 2 years, the car was growing a few things and covered from roof to tyre is moss, dew, and other wildlife.
Scraping this off the window with a card, I discovered it had smashed glass inside but all the windows were good.
With the intention of buying to sell, I knocked on her bought and bought the neglected fiesta for a total of £100.
Hooked up some jump leads and after putting some power into the battery she turned over straight away and fired. After unseizing the handbrake I drove it around the corner and parked up at a friends house. The next day I cleaned all the dirt and webs off and discovered the bodywork was immaculate other than a small spots of surface rust. The engine fired everytime with a jump and the interior is almost concourse. Today as she sits she is now completely dirt free and missing a headlight lense (fell off) but now I'm keeping her as my daily as she passed the MOT with only 3 advisories. Car to date owes me £200 so watch this space as I'll be updating with pictures the cars progress
