I really like this beautiful car. I owned a 1996 model at some stage. I loved it my wife not as much. I like the way you look after this Fiesta. I am not sure about the new color of your wheels but each to it's own. Cheers

Appreciate the comments guys and great to hear little memories people have as well , it's great to hear some opinions on the wheel colour as i was aware before i done them that is was a risky choice! Regards, Matt

I've just seen that someone's stole your wheels. That really sucks, hope you can sort yourself out mate.

That was nice of them. Definately get some locking bolts too. I think if I'd had a set nicked I'd put two different sets on for added security. Are centre caps hard to come by for pepperpots now? I've not looked for any, but all mine are missing :blub:

Centre caps are difficult to get on there own for a reasonable price but i'll find some i'm sure.

Getting the centre caps for my allycats was a nightmare, only two came with my wheels and after a long time searching i found a couple for 25 pound but they were way too rare to let go so I grabbed them. good luck with finding them, there will be some that will randomly pop up at the right price at some point.

I was surprised to find a set of reproduction centre caps online so i bought them while i could! They'll be alright until a genuine set come up.

Lovely little fiesta, the work you have done to it is superb!
Fingers crossed I'm getting a mk3 XR2i delivered tomorrow. It's been a dream car of mine for as long as I can remember. If I can get it to a standard even close to yours I shall be very happy!
Keep up the good work and sorry to hear about the wheels!
