One thing I have noticed is a slight gearbox whine, more noticable in 1st but I'm pretty sure my old one was the same? As said, long time since ive drove one. Changes gear smooth no crunching etc.
I had forgot how bad the gearboxes are tbh lol, changing gear is like stirring a bowl of porridge.
Seems spot on to be fair, massive difference from what was a brand new fiesta and its a long time since I drove one. Feels old, but i suppose they are now.
It was probably a tough one for jake to price really. On condition etc it was worth the money, but there is that many for sale now for £2500 or less that people instantly think it is over priced.
If anyone could point me to some suitable seat covers that would be great. Had a look on ebay etc and can't come across anything that is specificially made.
I paid top dollar yes but if I sold the seats then this is sub £3000 car which for the condition and history is more than worth it to me. I genuinely think I'd of struggled to find one as immaculate as this.
As of now my plan is never to sell it as I missed my old one so much, so we will see...
Its louder, not as comfortable, isn't as fast, uses more fuel, isn't as good to drive, interior is sh*te, stereo is worse than sh*te....
...and I f*cking love it.
Its still is immaculate tbh. Got a few things in mind but I've bought this to save money so trying to just keep it as is.
1st car I've owned where the previous owners know how to clean and protect a car. Was a dream to clean.
I'm idealy after mine really quiet as I'll be using it everyday and I leave for work at 6. Wouldn't mind it giving abit of noise after say 3k but I can't have everything!
Looking for a decent garage that can put a standard cat back on the car and also put some silencers into an rs192 system.
Pipewerx is the closest to me but i hear they have a 2 month waiting list.
Ideally 20k. I'm after a very high spec though so it may take a while for them to come down to that. I'm hoping they take a dive when all the lease cars hit the market, but I can't see many of them being specced well, which could in turn mean specced cars hold abit of value.
