Hi , lad across road is going to get rid of his daily and have his wife's fiesta. He has a 97 base fiesta with around 30k miles on it. It was traded in by an old lady at the local ford garage where his wife works. It had a bump a while ago and was written off. The wing was damaged by a cement wagon. It was so reliable he bought it off the insurance company and had it repaired. It's a cat c and although it's motd he has not had it vic checked. Basically it's just a very basic old car that has done hardly any miles. Mint it is not but it gets him everywhere without issue. It's in Blackpool. Shame to just scrap it when it could carry on getting so one around but not sure where it stands with the cat c issue. Any views? Be brutal as it's not mine and no financial interest from me. Cheers Jed

Any pictures mate ?
with low mileage like that , and a base spec fiesta, you'd probably only get 500ish if its in good condition all round/ arches not rotten like most mk4+5 fiestas ...
don't be put off by a cat-c either.
My mk5 fiesta zetec-s was a cat-c when i bought it, but it was mint, arches were mint, was a newer phase 2 02 plate and got aircon..cost me £900 back in 2012 and worth every penny.
I havnt had 1 single problem with it in the 2 years of ownership. Fiestas are good little cars, i rate them highly.
But to answer your question, Its probably only worth £500 max. You can get a pretty tidy mk5 zs these days for about the same price maybe a little more.

Hi thanks for that. No pics at mo but will try if can see it in the light. I was thinking its a £300 max. It's great no real rust but one or two little knocks as she was very elderly. Has a sunroof. Interior was mint but he uses it for work and takes lads to football. Just needs a major valet but no rips. It's ideal for someone that wants a cheap and cheerful a to b car.
