I still come on here, as Frags said, its a rare breed the RS Fiesta....or Mk3s nowadays, as people are moving on to pastures new.

Passionford and the likes will always be busy as it caters for all fords and not a niche market, like fiestas only. Im sure the Delorean website is quieter!!! :D

Just to be pedantic and as much as I may agree!

A capital I should be used when it is on its own - not a lower case one!
English should start with a capital E.
It's and don't contain an apostrophe.
Misuse doesn't contain a hyphen.

I agree with Eddie and Mark. The site is a little busier of late. The FRST is a niche vehicle and one of the rarer RS models. Until the base model MK3s become retro classics like the MK1 and MK2 the forum won't get any busier.

Im still about and always check the website each day.

A lot of the members who were posting when I joined are no longer seen on here though. I don't have my FRST anymore but im still interested in them and still own Fiestas albeit a mk2, a mk5 & a mk6.

I would say I'm on other forums and this 1 is very quiet compared to them, I don't like passionford, too many ppl with nothing but bad to say, I'm on the escort Cosworth forum and that's a great site and great bunch of guys, always helpful,

I have been on here a while but only recently started to view it daily , I must say the ppl on here seem to be nice , I get tempted to post more , but because its not a busy site you think is ppl gonna just think there's that idiot posting again lol ,

Think it's because the mk3 is a car for a special brees of persons.
I see it also on the dutch forums, loads of new stuff such as the mk6 st and ultimate, mk7.5 st etc

Very expensive to restore..most of the mk3's have some brown marks on them.
That will scare people (cost)

Here in holland its rare to see a mk3 of rst etc.

I try my best to help people on here and to be fair most people on here are very helpfull but also busy so might not be able to log in all the time

As for passion ford i am regyd in there but very rarly use it as I feel that having a fez makes you like 3rd class on there and 2nd class is having an escort ,,If it aint a focus or a cossie then most on there just aint intrested ,,,thats not to say everybody on there is like that

but i do go on here as much as i can Maybe the fiestaturbo.com should have a FACEBOOK page

Normally a site like this is used to flog on parts or ask for help when something's gone wrong. I daresay people are using other ways, but it's in one of my bookmarks and read it quite a lot even if I dont post.

Always hard to judge if a site is popular by just the amount of threads as there'll be info posted that does help people out, but if they're not a member then they might not sign up to post thanks or anything. I do this quite a lot with the Jag forums

I guess it'll be a core crew of so many people, then others will float in and out. I'm probably in the latter, same with XRtwo, go through stages of needng to post/view then doing other stuff with my time
