Default Newbie with my escort rs turbo

Hello people my name is Brad. I live in sunny Bude Cornwall
Ive owned my escort for just under a month now and ive wanted 1 since going to ford fair last year.

Here's a few pictures when i bought it











It stayed like that for 2weeks and then i blew the gearbox up. I fitted a new clutch from ford and i managed to find another S2 gearbox near by so i had those fitted. I then won these alloys off ebay for 41quid and got some smoked rear lights.

This how it stands





All comments welcome

voodoo's are awful, chavvy imo.
