Newbie with a *cough* Ford*

[*Jamie]

He's got a Ford, oh no!

Anyway, I'm here because I was browsing DetailingWorld and saw some of your member's cars and they were getting all bufty on them. I have to say I liked what I saw, so thought I would come on here, have a shifty and see if my next car is going to be an RS Clio of some description.

Also, a friend (back home in Guernsey) has a (I think) RS Clio 200, new-ish shape. I've only been in it once but it seemed the most complete a package out of all of my friends cars (They're all accountants and drive shiny new things at the moment!)

Anyway, I'm Jamie. Hello! :rasp:

Hi, what ford you got?

Hi welcome

Don't laugh but a Panther black Mk5 Fiesta Freestyle. It does have a few tricks up it's sleeves in the form of a 1.7 engine transplant, Milltek exhaust system and AP coilovers. I've kept it standard looking (apart from a slight drop on the coilovers, and the shiny exhaust tip) It looks for the most part like a Zetec S. I sort of fell into it really. Got offered it as a 1.25 with a blown headgasket for £50 last year and took it on as a project to have some fun with and cut my mechanical teeth on.

I know, feeling a tad under the weather

Believe it or not, I don't think I have any pics of it. I'm at uni at the moment so only have my laptop with me. I'll have a rummage through the hard drive.
