you dont want to sell it for a m3 as when the new one comes out next year the price on the ones at the moment will take a big hit, but the new one thats coming out is nice and has a nice 400 bhp v 8

she is a shed mate, well the last time I looked she was unless someone has cleaned her since

MK1 is coming on OK, she's going away to get all the tin worms fixed then it'll just be paint and reassembly with some nice goodies on her ready for Claire to put her into the armco, lol

As has been said mate, simply stunning! One of THE best examples of an Escos around at the moment IMO!

Never replace it with an M3! BTW, what tyres are they? Toyo R888's?

Tyres are Yokohama Parada Spec 2's.

The car was originally a small turbo model and they had coilpacks fitted instead of a distributor and coil, the coilpacks were hidden under the cover running down the centre of a newly designed cam cover. My car has been converted back to Big turbo spec and spark leads but they run into the back of the cam cover and are hidden which IMO looks loads neater
