Hi All. Ill hopefully be owning soon a 2003 ford fiesta finesse in black. I'm buying it off a work colleague and its going in for its MOT this weekend.

Just two questions. I've attached a picture and if anyone could tell me what the circled item is called i would be most appreciative.

2nd question. Apparently the speedo keeps cutting out. I dont know too much about it but if anyone has their 2 cents about it i would also be very grateful. Hes going to ask the mechanic this weekend about it but i just wondered if anyone here knew...

Mainly just about the item in the picture im most bothered about.

Thanks

Josh
