What car?
Right, im 17 in december, so im looking at buying a decent car, how ever, i might just keep the mk3 fiesta 1.3 my dads been using as a run around
car.. only done 50,000 miles, but its a 5 door..
What do you lot out there think? If i had the fiesta, id most prob add xr2i/si bumpers.. Dunno though lol
Think it will be hard to put a 2ltr pinto and RWD into it?

Sounds like an ideal first car, but why would you want to put different bumpers on it? You will be popular just for having a car so why mess. After
having a few two/three door motors I can say that they are just a pain in the arse, except for that XR3 I had (no little "i" either,
proper carb one).
DO NOT PUT ON KNOB OR BOLLOCKS!

gazza285 is right. Just use it to gain some experience until you have the locost 
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Start doing mods and you may potentially invalidate your insurance unless you declare them. Keep it simple and start building up your no claims bonus.
Save the money towards your first kitcar build instead, and then you can actually thrash people away from the lights rather than just thinking you
can!!
