Default Here you go guys n gals, first few pics of my Escort Cossie

The weather was actually okay today for the first time in ages, so I thought I'd get the car out and give it a wash.

I've had the car since late last year and it's a small turbo with Ahmed 300bhp conversion, hybrid turbo etc. It's done 36k miles, I'm the 4th owner, and it's got full history, every mot and nearly every tax disc. It did have cloth trim when I got it, but now has leather.

Anyway, enough chat, here's some pics. Hope you like it. Any comments welcome.

Cheers mate, seen pics of yours and it looks a belter. I wanted one with APs and Ronnies! Although it will be done at some point and I'm going to go for the red callipers. Not this year though.

Yes, I'm trying to decide about the other indicators, I bought the rears from Nomad recently and they look really nice in the flesh, I've still got the originals in a box though.

Cheers mate. Yes, I think I'm one of the first to put these on, especially the red ones, I bought them off Bungo, who also sells them on E-BAY. Took me a bit of time to fit but well worth it.

Cheers mate, each to their own, I really like them, and I won't need to keep having bits of bodykit painted. The bit behind the front wheel on these chip like mad.

For people who like the mudflaps, here's a pic straight on from the rear, this was taken before I'd cleaned the car though.

Might be the fact you never see them with flaps fitted that it looks funny,serves a purpose i suppose.

Oh no, there's not many Escort Cossies with them on. I did them on my first one as well. I do like to be different. 'He who dares wins.' as Delboy would say. Although he did say 'Fromage Frais!' too of course.
They won't be to everyone's taste, but then what is. If we all liked the same things it would be a pretty dull world.
