SUMMARY

One of the stars of our friend Mike Brewer's Wheeler Dealers Dream Car series, and with less than 9,000 miles from new!

DESCRIPTION

TV personality, Mike Brewer, sourced this unique example for his Wheeler Dealers Dream Car series that aired earlier this year
With just two owners and 9,000 miles from new, it's the lowest mileage Fiesta we have seen in a long time
The car was so good, it only required former F1 mechanic, Elvis, to carry out a service and adjust the tappets
Finished in Mineral Blue, it looks and runs like it did when it was driven out of the factory. Good history file
A true time capsule, and with Ford announcing the end of the Fiesta, a rare opportunity
