As above, ordering for a friend and wonder if anyone knows, damn parts website doesn't know

It's a 1997 in base spec. Cheers!

poverty spec shopping trolley will be solid

My discs were vented as were the ones on my base spec Escort. Check the car and buy whatevers fitted.

What you want is a set of 375mm vented, grooved and drilled ceramic discs with 6 piston callipers ...y0

...oh and dot 5 brake fluid.

I'll get some Willwoods ordered, cheers

On the Fiesta, some seem to have solid front discs, some have vented. Best advice would be to get your friend to just check his car.

Whatever was in the parts bin, went on the car

Why does a fiesta need brakes? Just open the door.

I've had 3 Fiesta 1.25s (Mk4, Mk5, Mk6.5) and all of them had vented.

Sucker for punishment eh?

I only nip around town, 5 mile commute to work each way. Don't really need much else!

Wouldn't say no to a 2.0TDCi Focus/Mondeo though.

I think you can fit either one of them.
