Hi everyone. My name is Paul and I've recently just bought a j reg fiesta rs turbo in red for the missus to take to shows. I've been in the rsoc for 5 years with my escort rs cosworth but have always fancied a fiesta rs aswell so thought I'd "treat the good lady" and get another toy for me!

I picked the car up from wales, the bodywork is sound but the are a few issues with the car, so no doubt I'll be trying to tap any knowledge you guys may have to help me out.

There was a box in the boot with loads of odds and ends including all the green bumper strips so all in all I'm very happy with the car.

Haven't had time for a proper detailing session yet so I haven't taken any pictures yet. The only ones I have are too large to upload.

Hello again. No doubt I'll be posting again soon, hoping you'll be able to help get the car back to 100%!

Thanks for the welcome guys. All the photos I have on my phone are too large so I will take some others and alter the size ASAP.

Good to see people still joining this site!

Hi guys. Thought this would be the easiest way to get some photos up of the new car. Only ones I have at the mo as the turbo and manifold have been removed in preparation for new radiator etc. after I've had a good buffty session, I'll show it off in all it's glory!

I'll put a separate thread up later, if anyone's interested in seeing the true love of my life. My 510bhp Escort RS Cosworth.

Hi welcome to the site i went and had a look at this car i think was it from Pontypridd?

Yeah, that's the one. Please don't say you walked away cos it was a money pit!

Unfortunately it was raining when I turned up but it was definitely better than the last two I went to view and they wanted £1500 more! Car is by no means perfect, not much history and a bit rough around the edges, but I wasn't looking for a concourse car, just a cheap runaround to chuck all the camping stuff in when we go to the shows.

I went to view for someone else mate it looked half decent but for what my friend wanted i told him to keep looking. As regards to being a money pit aren't they all lol.
