hi this is my mk1 1.1 fiesta 38,000 miles from new, its my daily drive but also a project.

I have upgraded to XR2 callipers and discs with redstuff pads,

GAZ coilovers are on order,

I have got some alloy top mounts to fit with the coilovers when they come,

Rear strut brace is on its way too.

could do with a front one also but cant find one for a MK1 so if anyone has one please pm me.

I think you can see im making the car handle and and stop before i make it fast. like i said its a daily drive project so it will take a while for me to make it how i want.

anyway here are some pics hope you like it as much as i do.

Nice car for a daily driver what engine are you putting in after you sort out the other stuff ?

thanks, will probably go for a 1600 from a xr2 its a fairly simple but effective option , but want to squeeze a little more power out the 1.1 for the time being.
