Name: Max Wilders
Location: Dartford
Profession: Plumber
Max grew up immersed in car culture—surrounded by modified motors and glued to Fast & Furious from the age of five. That early exposure sparked a deep and lasting passion for all things automotive, especially Fords. His drive comes not just from a love of the scene, but from his dad, who remains his biggest inspiration.
Nickname: None (but definitely a head-turner)
Build Goal: Show
This Zetec might not be packing huge horsepower, but Max’s mission has always been about making a visual impact. From carefully attached body kits to a custom exhaust system, it’s clear this build is about personality and perseverance.

Brakes & Wheels:
Estimated Power: A modest 81 BHP—but it’s not always about the numbers.
0-60: N/A
¼ Mile: N/A
The standout feature is the full Zetec S body kit, installed the DIY way—with plenty of tiger seal and even more patience. Max also highlights his full custom system from Custom Lane Styling as a signature mod.
Getting the right parts wasn’t easy, and neither was covering the cost of insurance—£9.4k a year would stop most people in their tracks. But not Max. Each hurdle just pushed him to work harder. His build is a testament to grinding it out and making progress no matter the obstacles.
Car life is part of Max’s everyday rhythm—from wrenching on upgrades to linking up with his mates who share the Fiesta passion. As a member of Fezgxng, Max’s favorite memory so far was doing his first parade lap with the group at Castle Combe—a moment of pride and community.
Right now, Max is keeping the next phase of his build under wraps—but whatever’s coming, it’s bound to make a statement.
“Take your time and don’t rush.”
That’s Max’s mantra, and it shows in every carefully selected mod. His advice to other builders: don’t cut corners, don’t follow trends blindly—build the car you want and make it your own.
Whether it’s scrubbing grime off a newly attached body panel or saving every pound for insurance, Max’s journey is pure Ford passion. His Zetec might not scream performance yet, but its presence speaks volumes.
“Work hard and you will achieve the car you want to. Take your time—don’t rush.”
