ironic that the heads were originally coscast with that sticker on there LOL


boost is wrong in an escort to me, or at least mk1+2! Bodies on an XE is just about acceptable LOL

additional link bars to locate the live axle rather than relying on the leaf springs, most will have coilover dapers added as well and use a lighter weight leaf or not at all

i thought they were rfx s dont think any car had them as standard after market wheels that were big in the rally world. that looks like an awesome bit of kit carl , loving the atlas on the back and is that a retro cue ball on the gear stick?
what box have they mated it to ? and is it a straight cut box?
hope it is not an rs box as it will explode in time and a good chance the gear stick will come off in your hand for no reason what soever. god i miss mine looking at that.
never thought people actually bought them for 5 figures just imagined everyone wanted 5 figures for them.

how many points have you on your licence at the moment carl? Think it is 4 points for due care and attention ( sideways)

Ha ha, yes it's a cue ball, number 3 orange striped LOL

The gearbox is a vauxhall omega 3.0 litre unit so should be able to cope with the whoossshhh of the turbo.

Got nine points, just got to be careful lol, need to stay off the phone whilst driving.

No where near, the rallye feels nice and composed and when you want power is an animal, this thing just makes noise and twitches the rear end around LOL but in a great way, the escort drives just like a go cart and has your head wobbling all over the place, it's not a commuter that's for sure.

A gear linkage popped off on the way back from pug festival, a few minutes later and a scorched arm we where off again, it drives spot on, just not so keen on the coil overs, they hate speed bumps.
