Hi Everyone,

Not an FRP owner (yet). I am the son of Andy with W4 FRP I am still trying to talk him round into letting me have a go in his FRP. Unfortunately I haven't got anywere with that, I am old enough to drive by the way haha I'm not 10 I'm 21 I just don't think he wants me to show him up with my brilliant driving skills :D.

I am new to the Ford family though, I have had my little MK6 Fiesta Zetec S TDCI now for about 3 months and I am loving every moment of it, I got the Ford bug from my dad. I am looking forward to owning an FRP one day :D.

I'll see you guys around.

I think Andy is being very unreasonable not letting you have a go in his FRP.
I taught my daughter to drive in mine at Castle Combe, and as part of her Christmas present last year I let her take it out at Keevil Airfield on a junior drive session with a racing driver :shock:
She was only 16 at the time :wink: She had an hour blasting up and down part of the runway getting tuition.
Monsoon weather on the day, but she loved it.
She is now 17 and learning to drive on the road, but not in the FRP :wink:

Hey LisaFRP, do you have any pics of them? If so could you send them to tazzenelli_11@hotmail.com If you still have a full set that would be great. Doesn't matter if they arent in that good a condition. I need something to work on while I am on my placement. Do they have tires on them?

Glyn was going to sell some wheels too, off 191.
As he's now doing V5 up I would assume he would be fitting new wheels to that one instead :?
I was going to have a couple, but I have since picked two up from South Wales a couple of weeks ago.

Eldude had some on Ebay for sale, don't know if they sold...

No tyres I'm afraid, I need them for myself ;) I'll send you over some pics, they are in fairly good condition, a few slight marks on them. I have also emailed the other interested party to see if they still want 2.

Cool - I would prefer all 4 wheels but I don't know when I can get the money as I haven't been paid just yet. If the other guy wants two of them I would consider buying the other two from you. Thanks for the email though they look like great wheels. I have sent you a PM too.

I know this is the FRP forum but I am sure you guys on here have seen this guy in action the Top Gear Series in 2009. He is back with a new car doing Gymkhana 3.

I am sure you will appreciate the car, his driving skills and the pops and the bangs this ultimate Mk7 Fez makes.

Hey Fergie,

I'm sorry but I don't understand that, my dad looked to put me and my 24 year old sister on his insurance not long back and could insure neither of us on it. I have been driving 4.5 years with a clean license and she has been driving for god knows how long. Who are you insured with if you don't mind me asking.
