After owning a series 1 for 5 years and then selling it regrettably the day it went I was looking at S1 to replace it with. I somehow ended up with an immaculate grey S2 and then a further white one I couldnt say no to I finally got another S1 again.

Some of the previous cars:

Old S1, immaculate car my first ever RS Turbo didnt go too extreme with the spec standard outside converted to gotech rolling roaded at 212bhp. It sounded nice but the gotech was just a nightmare it just seemed impossible to get it to run well for long.



My Grey S2, bought as an immaculate car but unfortunately needed every mechanical part replacing. Definitely had some fun with this one, fully rebuilt low compression engine, t34 turbo, green 803's and cosworth management with anti lag. The car was alot alot of fun sounded amazing and pulled really hard it was mapped up at MSD before they had there rolling road so would of liked to of known the exact power but it must of been comfortable 240-260. In the end someone broke into it one evening I left it outside smashed the window and damaged the bonnet. Ended up losing heart with it and breaking it for parts.

But in the meantime couldnt say no to this S2 which I still have.

Pics of it:



And some of them together:









Now the current S1
I bought this in early December an immaculate car fully powdercoated underside along with crisp white painting underneath. Some pics:

Very nice mate

 

Very nice. And I love the s2 too. Was interested in it myself when it was for sale

 

That looks mint bud whats the plans for it does'nt look like it needs anything doing to it

 

lovely collection you have matey

 

Many thanks for the comments. Quite a few plans for the s1 its needed a good clean I have used it in all weather and currently havent been able to store it properly so its in need of a good clean. Not looking forward to cleaning the underside as it was gleaming white when I first got it but a 6hr journey home in the pouring rain and all the recent bad weather the underside is stopping to go very black. Anyway started on it this weekend.


Stripped out the inside completely and surprised how clean the floor pans are. Not a spec of rust under the carpet and underseal it had some seriously sticky pads which have left a nice glue like effect and take quite abit of paint from the floor. Not too bothered as its going to be painting inside anyway and these are going in:

brand new set of these:

 

Gave it a good clean and wax oh and got bored and changed the wheels






A few outside







The whole interiors currently for sale

 

That looks bloody gorgeous on them wheels !! ^

Whats going on with the 'dent' in the rear bumper ?


LOVELY car mate

 

oh i was hoping it wasnt that noticeable accidentally reversed into a small wall and didnt see it pretty stupid but ill get it sorted!

 

beautiful car, must be a big smile maker for you when driving her???

 

Looks fantastic mate. Do love a track spec series 1..

 

Brand new focus rs box

 

Does anyone know where to get a straight cut gearset from?

 

best of luck with the build mate,are you putting a cage in it ?


love the wheels too

 

Nice to open a garage door and find both those cars inside
Very nice

 

yes booking it in with custom cages shortly

 

Love it on the montes

 

From a fello s1 owner it seems a shame to change it from standard. Mine is track prepped with cage etc but then it was always a bit janky and I would end up spending a fortune on all new seals/rubbers etc, but yours looks mint!!

Anyways, each to his own, will be watching how you mount that box and very jealous of your garage!!

 

Very nicw.I like the wheels too they really suit the car.

 

Nice

 

Looking good tim, who's going to be making the shafts? this is the route i want to take on my fiesta

fitting will be fun, very interesting
does the starter foul oil filter?

Happy times ahead then

Let me know how you get on as I'm very interested in thus

 

Very nice indeed mate

Such a nice pair you have there lol brand new gearbox is a treat also good look with the build hopefully catch you on track one day!!

 

looks almost too good to modify! beautiful machine
nice to see more people using the oz's, im subscribed

 

And may I just add I think it's the perfect use of the series one! They were made for the track so the track is where they should be

 

New adjustable top mounts ordered along with a custom set of GAZ golds currently being built 4 week turn around time which is annoying.

Im in need of a set of AP's next anyone know the best place to source them? and will I beable to get 324mm or 330mm under 16incn wheels?

 

Stunning s1.eapecially on them montes.i don't know what they are like but reyland do brake kits in black calipers with yellow writing for decent prices.should have a look there.martin will let you know what they fit under aswell.
Oh and sell me your other car

How much power is it the zetec turbo making? Sounds like a interesting beast
