	Hello all! Introducing my sister's first car, and an en masse family project! (My mum in the photograph for clarity!) A Ford fiesta courier 50 1.3 petrol. Initial thoughts are a mini camper:) it runs nicely (I drove it home!) Stops and steers. However it hasn't had much love, the bodywork is pretty poor! Filler in the sills, and the seams of the van body are poor.. should be fun though! Rare as rare little van. Oh his name is Clarence! Alloys will be of course happening!

	Rare as a rare thing, doubt I ever saw one. One way is just to use it, keep a hand to its foibles.

	We had one of these as a runner type van when I was an apprentice nearly twenty years ago. Ours was diesel and the water pump was hanging out of it. I remember getting halfway to work one morning only to happen upon my boss stood at the side of the road waiting for me to pass. The water pump had finally given up and the cambelt had fallen off haha! We got it recovered to work and I set about removing the head and replacing the multiple bent valves. That van then continued to be used every day for years after. I was having a look for a small van recently and couldn’t find one of these for love nor money! Yours looks like a lovely little van!
