Default concours or modded

I'm torn. I am a bit of a perfectionist but would like to build a yeehaa engine. I virtually rebuilt a 1990 Polo and it was showroom bar a few Tesco carpark dings. I have gone back to fords and ended up with an Orion equipe and in the few months I've owned it I've not seen another on the road. I reckon I could do Concours but I use the car daily and used to have mild panic attacks leaving my polo parked in a public space. Does the car have to be 100% original parts? I need my mods like sus bushes and a teeny bit lower. Can you own a Concours and use it as a daily? Convince me people!

Concourse car used daily.....................

OFCOURSE YOU CAN.
A lot of people do this and enter in novice class or intermediate classes,
In these classes yhe underside of the car is not judged, and if your a keen
enthusiast which you sound as tho you are, the novice class would
be a great class for you.
Get cleaning and enter it into ford fair.
Look out on here for tips/advice.
Or pm me with anY help you may need.
Novice class is for standard and modified
