Default My S2 Escort RST

Thought I would show you my S2, it is off the road just now as the clutch and gearbox are in need of replacing.



I was told that the YOO in the reg plate was special is this true?





And this is my old car that no-one understands why I wanted to get rid of it and get a 15 year old car! I am sure my fellow ERST owners understand.
