    Only one car, but originally a 1.3 Mk2, know a 1.8 mk2 running weber carb, uprated head, cam, manifold and exhaust and producing 106bhp at the wheels.

    I did borrow a Mk2 fiesta 1.4s for a couple of months while fitting the 1.8, only had it as a 1.3 for a week before it blew on me.

    Also about to take a Mk1 driver off my brothers hands, but it is still in his name so I can't quite call it mine yet.
