I threw away all the litter from the backseat. Riding with kids is a torture for me

Bought the Mrs a runabout

Wanted a diesel ideally but it was cheap so it will do.

Fixed corrado exhaust, is now a fully usable car that i can use whenever i feel like using it. Also bought some front hubs off a corrado that had done 19,000km, so probably running the lowest mileage corrado vr6 front hubs in the UK. Adds to the rarity value on future facebook posts.

Done nothing to the fiesta, only opened the bonnet about 5 times in a year, brilliant car but not as good to drive as the corrado vr6 with leather recaros

Had the car mapped at my friends place, and its a hub dyno, it was 308whp which converted to roughly 335-340bhp.

I was told on the owners club this wasn't possible, I was wrong, and it was 310bhp max.

So took the car to a rolling road for another dyno run.
