Hi all I'm Matt and for many many years I've owned a 1989 Mk3 Fiesta ( yes one of the 1st ) 1.6S Its been played with a little over the years stiffer,lower,2L Mondeo lump. The bad news its been off the road for 3 1/2 years I kinda just forgot about but loss of storage and seeing it suffer from being laid up so long has made me get my !Removed! in gear and get it sorted out again :) I wish it still looked as good as in that pic at the moment......
