[AlexO]

4 in the past 7 years

Mk7 Fiesta Zetec
Mk4 Focus Titanium
Mk2 S-max Zetec
Mk 8 Fiesta Titanium (my current drive)

[Jimpster]

This took me off down memory lane.

Couple of Mk2 Cortinas, always aspired to a 2000E

3 Capri's, one a 3 litre v6 automatic sold it as i wudda killed myself in it

1 Orion, had for a week as a temporary while my Astra estate was having an engine rebuild after the belt went, it was fast again cudda killed myself.

Couple of Granada's even an estate

latest 2005 mk2 and current 2007 mk2

[fa13sta]

Ford Fiesta XR2i was my first Ford (H reg, bought in 1996 I think)..

Ford Escort 1.4i estate (L reg, bought in 1998 I think)

Ford Mondeo (P reg, bought in 1999) - had a lot go wrong with that one 😞

Ford Escort (A reg, cost me £120 and was bought to cover me for a few weeks after the Mondeo died)

Mk3 Ford Focus 1.0 ecoboost, 100PS (2013 bought on PCP)

Mk3 Ford Focus 1.0 ecoboost, 125PS (2014 bought on PCP)

Mk7 Ford Fiesta ecoboost, ST-Line red edition, 140PS (2017 bought on PCP)

MK8 Ford Fiesta ST-3, quite a few modifications so far (and a lot more planned), pushing 270PS (2019 bought outright).

We also have a Ford Puma ST-Line (2020 on PCP) as our family car..

Out of all the cars I've owned (not just Fords) the Fiestas have been my favourite - really a lot of fun to drive.

unfortunately not, I couldn't afford to have film developed in those days so never took a photo of the car only holiday snaps and to be honest because I was a motor mechanic cars meant work to me so I didn't want to look at them.

 

 

[troy45]

Guess this would be on some people’s shopping list then

not mine just caught my eye at a car track day at Oulton Park when I’d called in while pedalling in the area

 

[Jimpster]

only the lotus version [big cheesy grin]

[troy45]

Google suggests that’s a Mk1 Lotus version? Little badge hiding on the front grille too 🙂

It's same with many of my cars too. There are loads of them (and bikes) I never took pics of.
