Old Fords never die! I was so keen to get this I swapped my 2000 Saab Turbo for it and I loved that car. BUT when would I get another opportunity like this? I remember going to see the Fiesta when it first came out – I think it was at Quicks on Deansgate Manchester around 45 years ago (it looks like this was supplied by Quicks) – I knew straight away they would be a hit.
Those very early models in decent condition are now fetching serious money. Getting towards 30 years old this is only a youngster BUT finding one in such remarkable condition both inside and out is a rarity. It has clearly been looked after from day one and I am told it has been dry stored for a number of years. The young man I sourced it from had it given to him by his grandparents. Going through the MoT history it would appear to have only done around 5k miles in the last 7 years. Take a look at the pictures of the items in the boot and the sticker from the 1995 Eisteddfod – fabulous! My guru chief mechanic Mark has been chomping at the bit to get hold of this and is now in the process of prepping it.
If you are thinking about getting into “older” car collecting with a view to building a future classic portfolio this would make a great first step.
I am positive this is going to sell but I cannot be certain when. However, this is one of those occasions when frankly I am not overly bothered because in my view the value of these cars is only going in one direction and let’s face it money in the bank earns virtually nothing – and is no fun at all!
Coming with a 12 Month MOT, Service and our own THREE MONTH WARRANTY – this really is excellent value for money.
Running costs are not available for this Ford Fiesta.

If this Little Belter isn't for you, maybe one of these is?
