Hi,
check out this months Classic Ford magazine:
The red Fiesta is from Belgium and was at our CFE (Holland) last year.
It has a turbo'd Kent engine.

If your on the Northside they have it at the Newsagent at Aspley (Gympie Rd Nth Bound) and North Lakes Newsagent in the shopping centre.
Found a pick from All Ford Day 02', think it was a 1300, have not seen this car for a few years....
