Love that! Reminds me of my old one....

How long have you had it? The reg no looks familiar, I used to live near you and used to work at Station Garage, before they flattened it.

Think we may have spoken before. Had the car about 3 years but I had a 1988 Xr2 and used Station garage a lot for parts.


Shame they knocked it down. Does your Dad have a mallard green Escort cossie??

Lol, probably have, but have the memory of a forgetful goldfish....

Yeh, missed the old place, pity I left a year before it shut down, would of made a few quid, got all my parts at cost too...
That cars his pride and joy, bless him, oldest boy racer around!! Well, maybe after Rod...

I think both with and without look good. Totally standard examples look good with the spots but I prefer the subtle mod'd look without them.


Plus the NMS twin cossie FMIC takes up quite a bit of room so not sure they would fit now anyway

Nothing really planned at the moment. Its running at 220bhp on the last dyno run.


Really its almost at its limit on mfi. Next stage would probably be to look at the management but quite like the originality

Yeh, he still goes, think it's now at Abeeymoor Golf Club? (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong!?) Does a lot of the shows too.
Also, does the RSFFE meets, out somewhere near Farnborough / Aldershot way...

If I was nearer, I would too! Been going to Middx meets since pretty much when it first started and Surrey from about '99. Moved away in 2007, really miss the meets!
