Default Anyone on here remember this?

Was featured in both fast Ford and Performance Ford about 5 years ago maybe even 4 years

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ford-escort-rs...QQcmdZViewItem

cheap really, but it used to have ES-COS replica front and rear bumpers, not tacky front on like it has now

Shame, I loved it when it was done (owned by a female too)

Wrong car as he didn't have Yellow Momo's, leather interior

The car had 90 spec bumpers and rear spolier and morettes with M3 mirrors

It's a different car Paul

the car looks the same apart from the dodgy front bumper as it did when featured
