hows a mk2 escort rs2000 lame lol

i had a mk2 1.6 xflow escort back april time and i remember at the time people telling me how great the xflows are what a piece of shit all it kept doing was breaking, the car was a beast with proper suspension ect but the engine was just shit and this isnt the first xflow ive had.......... infact every xflow ive had has just simply been a waste of fucking time and effort.

the mk1 1300sport we have has a lovely 2ltr S capri engine and box ready to go in after calling it a day fucking around with xlfows, we do still have a 105e with a 1700 xflow here and a 100e with a xflow but they will both be gone soon cos guess what.......... the engines just dont cut it any more and the old man is sick of looking at them
