Yes it is, the build date was Jan 1995. I would change the carpet and seats in there if it wasnt such a pain (dash out job) But apart from that its lovely. Got a few things I am going to uprate just so everything else can keep up with the engine :) Do you guys have any meets etc? I come from the Fast Ford scene and shows are everywhere :) |

Nothing organised officially....but theres occasional meets in the area that generally get a good turn-out.
Theres a pistonheads meet in Bristol 2nd Sunday of every month and a pistonheads 1 is coming up at Cheddar as well. My old coup was one of the last before the change over to the Evo and it never missed a beat...loved it, espec with Supersprint backbox and decat. Had really wanted a saloon but most at the time were dogs with fleas or completely OTT on price. |

Yeah I paid 5500 for mine around 3 years ago with 96k on the clock, I am the third owner. I must admit there was cheaper at the time but none was as tidy as this one. Still chuffed I got it to this day |
