1995 Ford Fiesta RS1800 review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Catalyst/fan belt became noisy.
HT lead caused backfire, not many dealers have correct diagnostic equip as it is a rare model.
Battery needed replacing.
General comments?
Feels like a larger car but has excellent performance. Tuning parts are expensive so keep it standard for a better resale value. Prices should appreciate as the Fiesta Turbo has in the last year. Only 497 ever built.
