It was a 1.3E (what ever the E stood for).. sadly it went to car heaven.. but not before me and my m8 ripped the engine out and stuck it in his ex British telecom bedford van..(with matress in the back). at least I think it was.. In them days u could pull a engine out but just removing about 5 wires.. and afew bolts of course. them were the days :-).. Rustyboxx is still enjoying them days ;-p

Hehehe, I guess it's ok we threadjacked the thread,well until he posts some pics of his car anyway...

The E was the last model of a Viva, you were lucky . The normal Viva's had a 1.0 engine if I remember correctly.

still offtopic, now we know where you started, from an 1.3 Oldsmobile Viva E, and ended up with a ST220 Mondeo, right after a convertible M3. Pretty impressive if you ask me... What other cars were there between, the Viva and the M3?

Viva 1.3 E 1979 reg I think
Ford Capri Calipso X reg 1.6 (engine swap to 2.0)
Austin Montego D reg

We didn't even have computers.











Hell, we didn't even have cars.
