That finesse looks tidy,I had a mk3 F plater popular 950.....proper slowwwwww. mk3's Are getting a bit thin on the ground these...proberly all rotted away, they love to rot !! it was proper mint, it had one scab on the rear arch bout the size of a 50p NO welding underneith and the engine didnt even have the normal tickin, only done 33k, didnt even have car park dings! proper looked after, if i got the chance i would buy it back, but sadly the lad i sold it too sold it to his gf, who didnt know curse word so tried to take the poor little curse word up a hill in 1st and blew its engine, if i had known then, i woulda bought it back, but it was scrapped before i even got the chance  |

nice to see photos of my fiesta  I was planning to fit a 2.0 zetec eventually but unfortunately I needed some money and got fed up of driving around doing takeaway deliveries in a car running coilovers and low profile tyres so shes back to standard now! Although this is a great shame, she's getting a bit ropey as of recent (dents and poor paintwork) so I like to think she donated her wheels and coilovers to a worthy cause. Give it 2 years and you will see loads of modified ones around! I was just ahead of the game  have a couple more recent ones of mine when it was sitting on coilovers.   |

I'm finding more and more love for these. I only ever own one, a 1991 Ghia 1.4i but it was a bit[/s] total shed. I love the earlier ones f-g-h reg, as tidy and as bog standard as can be ;D

They do look proper !!! I'll have to go look on the net at them I think lol TH Mono's were designed for Mk3 Fez's with bodykits I reckon. Just look so right - albeit google images doesn't seem to be helping me this morning. Get a set and get 'em on your RS sharpish! |

I've got the original rims ,they just look small when they're on the car. the rims on there now are kahns or kanh or something. If i got mono id want them to look flush with the arches...so I'm assuming i'd have to get them quite wide ?? |

The rs1800 wasnt a big seller so was rare when it was new there rare now, especialy good 1s, my wife used to have 1 unfortunatly i could never get it to run properly thanks to the previouse owner been a proper chav and modding it badly and thrashing it so we sold it on, myself and the wife have had several mk3's we love them, i only sold my last 1.6 xr2i because with 2 kids it was a squeeze to get them in and all the bits we needed, i miss it so much, proper fun little cars that can upset alot newer more powerfull cars. my old car  |

I suspect some 7 x 15s with spacers to get them sitting in the arches right is the way to go. Already looking good in my imagination! |

Very cool Johnson! I always liked the XR2's and Flights with these wheel trims. They look great there. Remind me of Sparco/O.Z mag rally wheels.  |

I need your help to get back to the year 1985.
