when i was at school i always wanted a escort cosworth lux in that lovely deep blue, but ended up with a £135 matisse blue (spelling) mk5 1.3, 4 speed it was in good nick even though the price admitted the body needed a bit of work but it was passable, but the inside for a 16yr old was i had a grey dash i didn't like it grey so went to halfrauds and brought a shed load of black and matching blue dash paint, took all the dash out and every thing else that was plastic and proceeded to paint everything in alternate colours, i did it sensible and left it mostly black with just bit's detailed in blue, put xr3i seat's in and a system, it was the talk of all my mates shame i don't have any pic's, because it wasn't a bad job for a 16yr old and i had it running mint on xr doglegs aswell, it was a tidy motor that i never got to drive properly because of loosing my licence on my bike when i was 17

i'm only 22 so still climbing my ladder for my cossie i hopefully will get there soon though
