Can a Fiesta be a classic car?

  Looks pretty but depends if the seller thinks it's worth a mint. Hard to price but i'd say if you really wanted one & if it's genuine £1000 area?

I don't want it myself although i like it & would be happy to potter around in it. I just like the fact it's aged so well.

  Could be a nice little motor for parents to buy for their offspring as a first car, maybe try to play the classic car arguement on insurance.

  Probably not a classic yet but certainly old school retro...it has a certain appeal i reckon.

It's certainly a very tidy car, not the base model though, that was the popular :y

Certainly looks original and as per add to my eye.

Perhaps not a classic at this time but, cash and space permitting, a worthy contender for the back of my dream barn for reappearance in 20 or so years.  Its normally always the go faster, full specced, versions that everyone wants, not the bog standard basic ones that were the transport of the masses, back in the day.

Very nice..... :y :y :y  I agree with what H21 said, just look at the price of 'base' model cars, Min, Escort etc, anything 'Mint' is over the £4k mark, many being almost double....And for the sports models looking around £10k, again for Mint.... :) :)

After a Maestro myself..... ;) ;) :D
