Around ten years ago or so I used to have a MK2 1600 sport.

It was stripped out COMPLETELy, fitted with a simple bolt in cage, two buckets and harnesses.

Engine was a 180 BHP 2.1 litre pinto coupled to a type 9 box with a quickshift.

Never ever did I have so much fun as in that car!

I've had loads of sports and rallycars but the MK2 wins hands down when it comes to entertainement.

Very easy to drive very silly and drifiting across junctions was never as easy again!!!

Sideways madness absolutely everywhere and a soundtrack loud enough to wake the dead!

Fuck me, I miss that car!
