What's the history to this car? Sounds interesting, I do not know of it!

This car was awesome!! Aggressive styling and huge Zetec turbo power!!

To get it upto the standard it was it going to talk 12k+ why not go your own way and do something original??

Soy mk2!! :lol:

I like

The cage was Les Hicks iirc and the seats were Cobeau Revolution or something similar.

I'm tempted to say "Do it your own way", but it was a really special car IMO. I can't REALLY put my finger on why, but radiant red is a bloody nice colour fresh out of the bodyshop, had awesome wheels, and..well, what can you say about that engine?! Dream ERST no doubt, so I can fully understand you wanting to make it precisely the car it used to be. Was tragic when it was broken, and so soon after its rise to fame

As said, go to PF, the history, spec and pics all live there

I see now, it's not even a Fiesta.... why you on here? :lol:

Passionford will hold the answers as people have said!

We're going to get the good/evil thing again like Ian H's Type-R. A black one with the originals bumpers, spoilers and wheels (see Fast Ford this month) and a red one with the original shell.

James Bentley was the chap that built the car originally. A bloody nice chap actually, chatted to him loads.

Steve B stripped the car to abare shell for him when he decided it was time to move on. The car was worth a lot more in bits so it went that way

Do it your own way mate and build a car for yourself, otherwise you will never receive the credit deserved for building such a car

I stripped the car back in 2004 and then the car was sold in bits for £15000 thats why it was stripped..... then James bought a E36 M3 Evo

A few pics....

The rest here...
