Mk2 Fiesta XR2 that was my first car and owned since I was 16. When rebuilt and painted I preferred the look without body kit fitted and that is what causes a lot of the rust! Done loads to it over the years. Still fitted with 1600 CVH.

It’s a credit to you mate. Looks really good. Is it a Ford colour you painted it?

I wanted to paint it imperial blue, but with it being a pearl colour and me being 16 it was too expensive. Ended up with this colour which is VW Turkis.

Couple of jobs tackled over last few days, refurb’d calipers from SSL fitted by Sean Edwards, along with new SNR bearing rear discs. Thanks goes out to Tom @hopgop1 for the rear calipers. First time I’ve used Sean buy cannot recommend him, Mack and the team enough. Also had new steering rods and ends done at the same time so front end is now fully refreshed.

Then Mot’d for another year, only done 518 miles since last year’s Mot. Sadly, the car is up for sale on Ebay due to the mentioned, just don’t get time to enjoy it.

Really making me miss mine! My turini's were anthracite but also with silver calipers, looked excellent just like yours.
