Hey Everyone, My name is Adam. thought it was about time I posted a few pictures of my car.

it's a 1990 MK3 Ford Fiesta 1.0 Popular plus in Wedgewood blue, one lady owner from new only done 49,000 miles when I first got it ,now covered 74,000 miles. never been welded and not a speck of filler, however there is some cosmetic rust on the front and rear valences and around the rear arches that needs sorting.

I purchased the car in April 2011 from the local car auctions for the princely sum of £100, it had been off the road for 4 years. it was sold as a non runner, however all it need was a new battery a some fresh petrol and it started straight away, and sailed through the MOT the same day.

Here is a list of the modifications I have done to it so far:

  • XR2I steering wheel
  • mk3.5 black centre console
  • Genuine set of Ford Floor mats
  • Changed the 2001 FM/AM radio for a 2015 radio cassette unit
  • rear applique panel fitted (very rare and hard to find)
  • genuine Ford spotlight brackets fitted (Just need to find a nice pair of Ford accessory spotlights)
  • 14 inch Ford KA Borbet alloys

    Interesting choice of wheels... And the bootlid is, well, different.. But looks like a good little motor. Bargain for £100! Welcome. Have anything interesting planned for it?

    Notice you have a front fog lamp switch on the dash and the brackets on the bumper, is all of the wiring there also?

    Liking the battery tray cover BTW.

    Sorted out the wiring for it, just need to find a decent set of Carello or Ford accessory spotlights.
