id go for a rs2000 if u can afford it mat nicer then a xr3 imo feels nippyer

plus u can still have the rs badge on the back and u wont be lying lol

 

you will need a mk5 escort to ensure the rear tail lights are not the rounded lights on the rear that go into the tail gate a right give away, and a rear disc conversion too

 

loved the car, but then 2 cars after this i got the real thing

 

where did that rep go its bloody lovely, after something for the wife as she wont drive the cos, and i need to ditch that fookin lupo

 

vr6 the lupo! LOL

that rep went to blackpool aint heard from it. Some old bloke bought it

 

shame that was lovely looking mota, hope the ciffin dodger looked after it, but blackpool it probs ended up nicked by a scouser on the piss and trashed

 

jee thanks for that, now i wont sleep at night thinking about whats happened to it

 

THANKS TO ALL WHO RESPONDED THOUGHT YOU WOULD ALL THINK I WAS A DICKHEAD WANTING TO DO A REPLICA AND IF I GO 4 THE ESCY THEN ILL DEFO USE THE RS 2000 AS A BASE,ALTHOUGH AFTER SEEING THAT SAPHY IM STARTIN TO DRIFT ONTO DOIN ONE OF THOSE INSTEAD.THAT LOOKS MINT AND FULL RESPECT TO YA MATE COZ IT LOOKS SPOT ON,SHAME YA HAD TO GET RID.
I OWNED A 2.0 WHITE D.O.H.C LAST YEAR THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SPOT ON FOR A PROJECT BUT AT THE TIME I HAD MY HEART SET ON ESCY.
ILL LEAV YOU WITH A DEBATE, WHICH ONE DO I GO 4 AND WHY?
LETS SEE WOT U ALL COME UP WITH EH, CHEERS LADS

 

ARE YOU SHOUTING?????caps is for shouting mate

 

well as driving culture has now gone towards drifting sliding etc etc a saf would be good, make it look mint and then weld the diff

that rep of mine was 4x4 but it was the same transmision as the cossies so it used to chase its tail on a bit wet grass lol

 

soz bout that cal didnt even realise i just wrote it then posted it,this betterlike.the more i look at that saffy the more im drawn to go with it,still unsure though

 

heres my little bro's

its now stripped out with a cage and buckets

 

 

thats hard as nails mate
