Replying to: andys120 (Dec 15, 2007 9:36 am) When I looked at other images to "verify" my guess, your photo flopped up as a Fiesta Festival. Back in the heyday of my '82 Tercel, a good friend was having equally good luck with her Fiesta (reliable, fun to drive, etc.). So I'm guessing this one is around an 81 or 82. (Well, reading the fine print I guess this one was no newer than a 1980?). |

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Dec 15, 2007 2:33 pm) Mine was reliable for the 2 yrs I owned it (other than an incurable, intermittent, mild front-end shake). The impression it gave me was that it was not nearly as substantial & secure feeling as its VW rivals (since I had a MK1 Scirocco at the same time). |

Replying to: andys120 (Dec 15, 2007 4:53 pm) -Several inches chopped from the wheelbase, an upright windshield & doors from an Audi 80 (aka 4000S) -A 20-valve version of the legendary 5cyl Audi motor with (IMHO) one of THE most hauntingly gloriful engine sounds EVER. -Many other tweaks beneath the skin This was all done by Audi Sport in a vain attempt to compete with the purpose-built, mid-engine GrpB monster rally cars of the mid-80's. BTW: Check out some epic 80's quattro videos by searching the names Rohrl, Mouton and Blomquist on youtube.
