Default car dilemma

after a wee think im in 2 minds whether to give up on my mk3 escort turbo st170 project as im still a fair bit from finishing as its cost me neerly £5,000 already & it will cost that again to get it finished to how i want it. so once its finished id probably track it for a year or so & play about the back roads etc & then i might get tired of it it once it is finished & i reckon id probably break it to try pay for what its cost any way so im thinking why wait? why not just stop now & sell every thing & save up & buy what ive always wanted since being a young lad?

an escort cosworth

im not loaded & dont realy fancy a loan but i reckon if saved till summer i could get one & keet it for a year or so look after it id get my money back as there hardly going down in price & after seeing the likes of stoo's & the blue 1 with the wrc kit 'M666 FMC' is the reg its got me thinking??

what would you do? carry on with what ive got & get it finished or give up before it costs even more & get an escort cossie??

Get the Cossie, buy a good one & look after. Its as good as money in the bank, not that you'll have much of that when u have a Cosworth for various reasons.
