Interesting antiroll bar!!

Are the coilovers made by Leda? Not seen remote canister coilovers for the Mk3 and 4 Escorts before.

Lovely car mate and very nice setup from Martin Ive driven Tony's car both on track and the road and the setup is very stable

ARB is this one I think - http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/catalog...oducts_id=7196

I might buy one for the front of the escos.
