I have seen the car & in my opinion it's too good to break. It does
need quite a bit doing, but would make a decent 2+2 with time &
effort.

I can confirm that they are Mk2 Fiesta ones that are fitted to my Mk2

If anybody fits a kit I would be interested in the results as the

the Saloon.

further, if only for future
Now have collected my Saloon, been in touch with QSC in Devon & they

I need to find a Servo for my Saloon, as the adjuster is siezed & the

I still think it's the fuseholder going open circuit under load,
especially if you get 12volts @ the connector with no load, try making
