ive just mailed him to see what historys on the car

 

was that 4 door escort turbo in green with no rear door handles yours back in the day? allways remeber it around ipswich?

 

 

 

At least the guy is honest about it !!!!

 

lovely

 

Yes it was, you've good memory

 

Smit - We all make mistakes with our choice in cars, clearly thats one of yours

 

Ryan - Was in 1998, i thought it was alright back 8 years ago when i was 18...What did you have?

 

I was still in nappies then

 

Heres one of my mistakes pmsl, but as smit said back in the day it was the bollox

 

back when everyone used to do the circuit through the town center, near the bus depot, now a no cars zone, then off up to macD's every weekend, mmm had a 1.1L mk2 fiesta, remember my insurance being twice the price compared to you suffolk people with simular cars.

Still back in 98 @ 18 it was one of the cars everyone wanted liked, and tws venoms were the alloys to own

 

Rattlesnake and illusion kits...

They were the tits in the late 90's fpmsl

Shame they were horrible n you never saw how terrible they were

 

honest advert

bit of t-cut and it will be fine

 

the old rattle snake body kit, wernt it? again back then was the nutz if you had it, one of them things everyone wanted, now days

 

I spent shit loads of money having it all sprayed etc etc...

Had everything illusion except from the wide archs (Which they didn't do for a 5 door) Had the spolier/front+rear bumpers/bonnet everything...

The venoms were polished aswell (You can't really see in the picture clearly) They cost me big big money..Think they were around 950quid with tyres

It wasn't actually a turbo untill late 1999 when i found a XR" turbo techics fiesta and brought it for 50quid. Turbo was fooekd so got a t3 off an escort (Was a tiny t2 thing on there orginally) Only ran about 5/6lb but was 130bhp which was quick enough for me in my teenage years

 

exactly back then no one had done what i had, mixing the illusion front bumper with the ratllesnake kit.

Evereyone liked it and always had loads of people looking at it at chelsea cruise, commenting on how good it looks lol.

As you say no adays people would take the piss and i couldnt blame them pmsl

Wrote it off in the end, decided i didnt like the new audi a3 infront of me

 

I had an engine bay fire and broke it for bits....

Made a few quid back on part...All i couldn't sell was the shell so i scrapped it..

Not after all my mates absolutely ruined it with a bat before the taking it to the scrapyard

 

My car from 1998 I made front cover of Fast Ford in october
And sold it for Ł8500 after
I fooking loved my venoms back then

 

At the time Venoms were the daddy wheels

 

In 1996, when I was 18 I owned this;





And this






By 1998 I had this on the road, which was then featured in Fast Ford

 

Damo I remember your estate really well! did you have it at Ford Fair '98?
and was the RS16i genuine? your a lucky git if so Stratos was my fav colour on the RS16i as my dad had one

 

Yup the RSi was the gen article mate, was still on twin coils too Bought it on my 18th Birthday for 1k then paid 1k to insure it

Will always have a soft spot for them... I did try to buy it back and left a note on it one night when I saw it parked up LOL

Did a little welding and put a new wing on then sold it the following year for 1600 quid... Which went towards insurance for the Estate

I took the estate to Ford fair in 1999 at some country hall place, it was on Fast Fords stand, I remember the queue to get in went down some twisty country lanes and there were a couple of cars rolled into a ditch, as they had come round a bend at high speed only to find a load of stationary cars in front of them .... Worst thing was I nearly hit a White Ecos up the arse by doing exactly the same thing

 

Was '99 the crazy crazy hot year? got burnt to fook that year!

 

yeah 99 very very hot hot hot
