My first car was a silver Mk3 Escort 1.1 L 5 door,i had that for 1988 to 1995 i remember buying a genuine RS1600i front spoiler from Fords at the cost of £43.
2nd car was a 1990 (H) Orion 16i ghia with full rs kit.
Heres a pic just before i sold it.

Sold that in 1998 for a phase 2 Clio 16valve,that was one of my fav cars,sold the Clio for this
Peugeot 206 gti owned it for about 7 years





sold that in 2008 for my current car,subaru impreza wrx

your first car is like popping your cherry, not a big deal to anyone else but huge to you!
19 16v are awsome motors, had 4, go well, sound great with just a airfilter and handle very well
should never have sold this, so much bang for no money,



would love to build another only better spec'd but cant decide wether to or not as it no longer original as i done one
