After breaking my black 2wd to build a yb escort, then changing my mind to put it in a capri as a cheap project (while saving for an escort), I've some how managed to end end with yet another saff???
The escos is still my goal, but as this came up cheap and my capri was getting more expensive and more rusty/bodged the deeper I dug.The decision was made and two days later it was in my garage(again after jase hiding it from his mrs in there for 3mths).
Its worked out well tbh and it should be a better spec than my old saff for less money. no brainer really.
Car bought off of jasesapphy ->
