4. Needs a Fiesta doner reg or better still a Vosa SVA test.

Yeah... Like you will get it registered without one! (Legally).

Better in the "won't get crushed by plod at its next MOT" kind of way?

If you can get over the panel fit on the bonnet and the 'looks like a lotus' nonsense it looks quite smart for a kitcar IMO. Not going to be a demon performer with that engine though.

No, but the exhaust in the same picture made me laugh....fitted to the same standard that Mk2 Fiestas were from the factory, i.e. dragging along the ground most of the time due to Ford saving 27p on exhaust mountings. I say mountings...there was only one IIRC!
