Mine failed on one of the headlights last year, the bulb was put in wrong (not be me) and had melted some of the reflective stuff affecting the 'beam pattern'

I replaced it and it passed on everything else

its like that in america and spain. My mum lived in spain for a while and the cars she owned were shonkers. holes and bits falling off.

saying that, i can remember my uncle having a fiesta mk1 when i was younger. He used to drive me to the football in it (50 miles) with my feet resting on a board that was covering the gaping hole in the floorpan
needless to say, it failed its next mot.

I see you a fair bit.

we have drove past each other a few times. Mines a blue 55 pre facelift with side stripes.

theres a black one, a red one with stripes, a silver one with blue sides and another naked blue 55 plate going around. common as muck.
