	Had this sat on the drive for a number of years and not done any thing really with it, so pulled my finger out and finally got it ready for the road. so i gave it a 2in drop and fitted a sett of 16in steels i made up for it a yr ago gave it a once over brake's. light's ect. and here it is with a fresh mot.

	Looks good. A pretty rare car over here now. Does the remote PLIP key still work? These were the first cars to be fitted with remote locking.

No central locking just a basic key. what year was it fitted from ? this is a 84. was also told there is less than 10 here.

	\| always thought these looked great. They all seemed to disappear overnight back in the late 90's. This looks really mean. Great save.

	Oh my, I only ever saw one Fuego in real life, and that was rotting on a drive way - untill it got removed a couple of years ago. A pretty exotic car nowadays! I always like the styling. Great car!

	A mate bought one back in 86 when the rest of us were all in mk2 escorts and capris , pretty rapid compared to a 3.0 Capri but it was French and turbocharged so was broken most of the time

	these are gorgeous looking motors, excellent profile. My Dads dad had one of these, Dad (who's car knowledge and interest is a measurment similar to Planck length) claims it an awesome motor. I will be looking out for this in Cheltenham for sure!
