7 gear boxes.
HT leads.
Misfire that no one knew how to fix.
Injectors.
Crap.
I waited for years to get an RS 1800 and it's the best move I ever made. I have had about 40 cars and this is the one. Performance is never a problem and reliability is second to none.
I would recommend this car to anyone who likes interesting cars.
I purchased my Fiesta 1800i 3 months ago and it's by far the most fun I've had with a car. It's cheap to run (ford parts are always nice and cheap from the breakers yard), it looks half decent and performance is excellent for the money (I paid £1300 with 69k on the clock).Even though I've not had it for that long, it's never caused me any problems or made any suspicious noises. It's due for a service very soon and will perform even better once it's had a new oil change etc. For the money I paid for this car I don't think I could of got a better deal. If you treat the car with dis-respect of course your gonna go through 7 gearboxes (check other owners comments). I'd recommend this car to anyone who wants a cheap little runabout for a top laugh, for not much money - just make sure you pick up a good one!!
