Two owners, 74k, MOT until October tax until end of Jan, everything works.

£1.1k didn't want to pay that much for one but looking at the older N&M plate ones they were really tatty and had to be silver as they generally look better for their age.

Yep, electric sunroof, aircon, PAS, twin airbags, ABS, electric windows. Very good car for 1k

But the RS It drives like a limp cock compared to that, it's got no go in it. But it serves it purpose.

It's very enclosed, and no door cards which is a bonus. Because normally I'd get in the Fiesta after Rach had used it all week and it would be full up with empty sweet packets.
