White T34! Love

I do like those Rondell wheels but she needs some MO6 Compies (FTW) IMO! Yes

Love the MKI Carl... (Not sure I have seen any pics you have posted of it before or not) Nice colour scheme too. That must have sold for a small fortune?

Looking goodCool

Would need a fair bit of £££ chucking at the engine to keep up with your Rallye thoughYes

Only downside to the Cos is the horrible MT75 gearbox,feels agricultural compared to later 4x4 carsThumbs down

Has it had the ratios changed in the box?Or just strengthened standard ratios?


Unsure to be honest, I know it's had a lot of work done and the gears are quaffe? On overrun it whines, sounds like a rallye car, I don't find it that bad to be fair, seems to get all the gears ok and smooth enough.

It's running 360 brake so it's not slow it just feels heavy compared to the 306. I have done 150 miles in it since sat afternoon, rain has stopped play now though.

I agree regards the wheels but they are bloody expensive to replace, I like the monte Carlo style wheels but with tyres in 18 inch is £1300.

Mk1 hasn't sold yet, fingers crossed, it sells.

Just seen that, was cheap but factor in a full respray and a remap and you have what another £2k plus on the price, it may even need more than the seller is letting on.

Oh yeah, the Monte wheels are nice. I don't know what the OZ versions were called (used on the Escos Grp A/WRC cars) but they are even better...



I have seen more Cossies with the Rondell wheels than Comps TBH, unless the car is an animal like Martin Reyland's 'L700 NY'.

Quite strange, used the escort today, dropped the daughter off swimming and went back outside, the crowds the car draws is quite surreal. Let's hope no one comes for a look at it during the night.

Yep the above wheels are the ones I would buy if I had a spare bit of cash, I had these on my old 106 cosworth, just a b**ch to keep clean being white and with so many nooks and crannies.
