Well
as of the 28th May 2006 Team Fiesta is no more... well it shall live it the
rest of its days in Fife, BOO ! Team Fiesta has gained legendary status around
these parts of its 4 year life span... and never once broke down got to be
some sort of record there! 950 cc's of power came out this wee beast and
could do 0-60 in a good couple of seconds (slight exaggeration but its my
tribute I can say what I want !)

Early
days of Team Fiesta i think this was the day I got
it
On location in Glencoe, what a ride ! Team
Fiesta lead a rich and varied life but its heart belonged in flying up the A82
to the heelands !

Team
Fiesta needed a good send off photo shoot
It certainly did !
The lack of power steering
and a full set of wheel trims never stopped Team Fiesta being the King of the
Road and always took her place among the big wigs of the road (she even took
over a Lamborghini, I'm not kidding ! proudest moment of her life you see.
In her later life I felt Team Fiesta needed some slight alterations to keep
her up to date with technology so que the pimping of the ride. ( I don't
mean big rims and a cheap bit of plastic stuck on the back to make it look like
a surfaced whale...proper pimping...gadgets !), the full list was rather
impressive...

Now I'm pretty sure you
will agree there are not a lot of Fiesta around that do that ! hence why the
car was such a legend and deserving of this page.

How
many Fiestas can boast there own
TV?
Isn't the baby sparkling?

See Team Fiesta serves all
purposes
One last photo for the send off
I feel now I will
finish off with some classic moments of Team Fiesta life.
-
Euan you remember that
time on the A82 where we saw all those neds broken down at the side of the
road? We slow down to a stand still...who wouldn't help out a ned in
need? They come walking over to the car to the tune of "
alright big man cheers were broken doon, motors packed in"
Since these were neds what should one do? haha lets speed off leave
them high and dry ! instant classic as we drove off to the
tune of 5 of them giving us the two fingered salute....hehe love it
!
-
That day after the
last exam in 6th year and we seen how many people we could fit in Team
Fiesta...I was dam impressed as we drive off with I counted 8 people and
the exhaust actually scarping off the ground.
-
That time I let Alex
and Greig drive it at Kingshouse and I cant mind who it was but someone
nearly put it in a ditch haha, nutters !
-
Driving up to the
hills with one of Alex's "Tunes for Team Fiesta" CD's each one
made special for that journey, always good Alex has to be said !
-
Andy remember last
winter we flew up the road to go climb some mountain and we seen that uber
sunrise? stop the car and jump out to take some pics dropping my digicam
right on the road...smash DOH!
-
Driving down to
Newcastle and getting the Fiesta into triple figures ....never been so
scared in my entire life !
-
That first ever
walking trip remember it? dump the soaking wet tent in the car as we
couldn't be bothered folding it up and we had to drive the whole way home
with the windows open as the car was reeking !!!
-
Ohhh a recent one neds
decide to hit Team Fiesta with snowballs...im not having that so me
cheekily notices a nice puddles next to where they are standing, pull a U
turn pelt it back to where they were right through the puddle and you can
imagine what happens next.
-
Ohh and on that same
day (was a good day) the car had 3 ft of snow on top of it which I couldn't
be bothered cleaning off these neds drive up behind and as neds do become
irritating little gits. So I bring Team Fiesta to a stand still on
the middle of the road much to the anger of the neds behind me then I
floor it! Newton's law's I do believe say that snow has to go
somewhere, right on top of the ned mobile ! I have never laughed so hard
in my life !
Team Fiesta now has a new
leader since my wee beauty has gone que Big mikes Wheels to proudly take over
the throne of Team Fiesta official leader, do me proud son!

My prodigy do me proud ... or else !
So on yerself Team Fiesta
do the bizzo down in Fife and become as much of a legend as you were up here !
LONG LIVE THE KING
