Following on from the thread about what your favourite ford engine is, the one where the thread starter posted a picture of a 1200bhp YB that was actually a subaru engine instead
it got me thinking about different fords ive been in and which I particuarly liked, and Ive realised that they are ALL powered by YB's in my case, much as I like the looks of a series 1 RS turbo etc, none have really impressed me with how they drove.
So whats everyone favourite fords they have been passenger in or driven etc?
For me, vaguely in order its:
Patrick (reyland 3 door)
MAD Yum
L8 ECU (doug stirlings escort)
Mike Rainbirds "peggy"
Martin Hadlands escort (only low boost only, need another ride sometime to see what its like now!)
Phil2400's mega tidy saph, largely due to his awesome skills behind the wheel rather than the spec itself, just a really well put together car / driver combination
Si B's when it was running at 480bhp on the occasional day it wasnt blown up
Loads of others Ive got vivid memories of for good or bad reasons, like my RS500 for the fact I only ever drove it a few miles before my mate wrote it off, but those above are the ones that particuarly impressed me for one reason or another.
Anyone else find their list is a very 1 dimensional YB based affair too?
