Wrong again!! I had no issues whilst lapping Combe the car was running just fine as always, I chose to use much less boost than I would normally to save fuel as I was planning on running all day but sadly a melted wastegate diaphragm cut my charity rides short.

Btw I'm not blinkered into thinking the Evo's and other modern machines are not better in most area's than the ageing Sierra/Escorts but I like what I have thanks very much. Still wouldn't mind an Evo as a spare car but I have plenty of spares already!
