Pics from Irish Meet

Post by martyjer »

Pictures from our latest FTO-Ireland Meet in the link below if anyone is interested.
It was our biggest one yet, with a turnout of 17 FTO's, not easy keeping tohe convoy together but we pulled through.

The blue one was mia for a while but resurfaced yesterday again, he bought it without telling anyone, the blue and the pink one are now in the same household, a husband and wife team.

Looks like the same car all right ya, the Ford Focus side repeaters are a give away.
Theres sort of angel lights in the front all right, shes a beaut of an FTO. The current owner had to get some body work done as the bumper was split, and the whole side was keyed, but he did a good job of it and shes back to her former glory again now.
Where did you find that pic xj265?

It would prob have been on ftooc at some stage all right, used belong to a uk member before.
Actually heres a question, do ye have a specialist website or supplier in Oz/NZ that sells the filters, belts, pulleys, and general OEM parts? Just for future reference!

can go to mitsy dealerships like donnithorns in NZ, however REPCO in NZ usually has most generic stock on hand like gates belts/filters/plugs/timing belts and waterpumps most engine parts ETC and are generally a lot CHEAPER for just as good if not better product, not so sure of stock on hand at hese places in AU though

Remember NZ doesnt have these huge mark ups on prices like AU and I believe the uk. Now dont get me wrong buying genuine is still a lot more expensive and as vip said, you can get the same if not better quality from aftermarket suppliers but its still no where as expensive as over here
