..erm, fiesta






nice cheap motoring for a year or so while i save up some money etc etc
not TOO much of a drop power wise, but should do alot better on fuel than the current 20mpg

will get more pictures when i actually get it home, has potential to make money back as well once the rubbish is taken off (m3 mirrors, whatever the wheels are etc etc)

They have such different drives due to differnt torque characteristics so the RS Turbo will always feel quicker in gear.
