Ford Fiesta RS Turbo
Discussion
I thought I would make a new thread for my FRST.
Bought it earlier this year and I was using it as my daily driver for quite a while. Unfortunately it has now developed a problem, which I have yet to diagnose. I have tried the TPS and IACV but need to test out a new MAP sensor. MOT has now run out though.
Needs to be sold but I think I will leave it on the drive for a while until I have spare cash to get it on the road.
It's pretty standard, just got Compomotive wheels, Hi-Spec front calipers, exhaust and Pace fmic. It is in fantastic condition though, having had a bit of a restoration a few years ago.
Anyway, here's a few pics...
Thanks for looking!

I have a link to the build thread - http://passionford.com/forum/restorations-rebuilds... - but unfortunately the pics have expired. I do have a print out of it with pics though.
It had a respray but this was done with the archs/skirts on. The only bit of rust I have found is a tiny amount under 1 rear arch

Thanks for the comments everyone...makes me want to keep it. Whenever I go to local meets it gets plenty of attention as well.
The only reason I have considered selling it is because of my debt situation. Might decide to keep it if my ppi claims come through with decent amounts.
Would like a t3 conversion too, I was always a little disappointed with the performance of it. Maybe its because the last fiesta I had was an RS1800 with a 2.0 zetec Turbo running a t34.63, though

i love these too. hankered for one for years, remember when they came out and i drooled in the window of the local ford garage who had a white one in for sale new. had a sit in it too. insurance was just a joke for them though back in 1991 and i was 19 so ended up getting a clio 1.8 16v insured with my dad. i still want one, but would have to have more poke these days circa 190bhp or it would feel too slow, the tiny t2 turbo needs changed to a t3. one day ill get one as a weekend toy.
