I know it's not very "Passionford" as it's not a 30 year old Cosworth (it's got a Cosworth head if that counts?) but thought I'd share.

Nipped by the St Neots grafitti tunnel Sunday for a few snaps. Would have been better if it were darker rather than the middle of the day:

(A couple of different cameras / settings used to get different saturations etc)



















Stealth grey?


Would be daft not to give it a few revs when under a bridge:

Just waiting in the shade whilst the other half took some of hers:






Well I like it

 

nice pics!

 

Nice pics

 

cool them mate...reminds of need for speed pics i did..

 

Nice car matey. Just cause i have a cosworth i dont think its the best ford made.

Cool pics too.

 

Cool pics and nice video.

 

that's great spot to take some pics. you also did fine with the colour management.
very nice car too.

 

Cracking pics m8. Rear no plate looks a bit squint tho haha

 

Could well be! I was looking at the front from the office window only yesterday thinking the same!!

 

Cracking car that mate! What's the round thing in the middle of the rear bumper diffuser?

 

Nice pics, like this.

 

Fog light - Some owners want to change the rear diffuser for a USA one as their car doesn't have it but I kind of like it now.

 

Cool pics there fella

 

One of my work mates has just got one in Blue, his Reg is X23FRS lol


Steve

 

Can't think of anything that relates to the 2.3 engine that begins with X..

Maybe I beat him to the Turbo reg..

 

Lovely pics those, I thought about the MK3 but just aren't fully commited to them yet, how are you finding it Dal??

 

It's awesome mate - loosens up nicely after 1000 miles, almost as though the boost is restricted before then. Very capable in all departments.

 

Lovely pics. I got one a few weeks back now. Same spec as yours and I LOVE it! I've only done about 800 km and I'd say it's definitely getting more boost as the km go on. It's a bit strange!

 

It's good fun isn't it!!

Could also be the engine just loosening up a bit and stretching it's legs. Mines on 2100 miles now and flying.

 

Cool pics, do they pop and bang that much out of the factory, or have you had it mapped or something?

 

I reckon they would look amazing on Mk1 RS wheels.. Shame about the bolt pattern

 

Got to be better than the Rotas or Fifteen52 types that seem to be going on

Completely standard. When it's vaguely warmed up and in Sport mode, it'll do that around 4000 revs all day.

(Although I didn't do it once at Ford Fair as I'm not a twat)

 

All the revving and banging at FF was so annoying, not sure who it impresses.
Kids may be.....

 

Na I wanted the X reg as my first car was an X Reg Escort 1.1L economy

 

Ahhh! Excellent!!!

(Mine was an X reg Metro which isn't quite as cool )
