i am a fan of rallying and was always fond of the Mk1 and Mk2 Escorts. i was talking with my old man about what car i was going to buy (was still 16 at the time), said i wanted something that was cheap to tune, a bit different, good looking and had some serious street cred. things like Mini's and Mk1 or Mk2 Escorts came up. that day we were in WHSmiths and my old man showed me a copy of Classic Ford. that was it, i was hooked and the love afair started, bought myself a 1300GT with bucket seats, bubble arches and minilites about a month later.

from that i bought my XR3i Cab, my next step was going to be a S1 RST but insurance is being a bitch so i can't get covered with my current company on any RS till i'm 21. this has put me at a dead end road with Fords, so the plan is to go jap, buy myself a 200SX and then when i'm older and wiser get back into my Fords, hopefully getting a 3dr or a EsCos (both child hood dreams) or another old skool escort - this time an RS tho.
