Orite everyone. Thought I'd share with you what I'm driving at the mo. Fancied a cheap fun wee car to run around in while I sorted my Orion (P&J). I Picked this up at the start of July down near Falkirk.
Quick rundown of the car is a mattise blue 88' Escort 'L' with a 2.0 zetec on RS1800 management, unknown gearbox, 421 with an rs turbo stainless, Cosworth brakes, 40mm lowering kit, tidy 90's spec turbo interior and some pish 15's.
I've had it just over a month now and it's great on fuel and drives spot on if a little lumpy on idle. Ex owner was told their was upgraded cams in it but they're Ford stamped so unless they're reprofiled they're boggo spec. Only problem I've had so far is the fuel pump relay wiring had come apart but after a bit of headscratching found it up behind the dials of all places so that was an easy fix.
I've just taxed it and plan on keeping it for a while , only plans I have are to get some quality tires and round wheels on it, tidy up a few bits and use it!
Piccies!
Coming up the road!
