Dave.. I still have moments of selling it and cutting my losses and letting someone else have all my hard graft, but then you speak to anyone of the above and they make me see sence! When back on the road again, i bet ive spent about Ł14K in as many months ( 2 engine builds dont help tho! )

i seen richard from wheelton out and about running it in and making sure it was ok with you, i looked round the car while i was chitting to AJC and another mate tom (mallard RWD escos) and i must say mate.....
your escos is THE nicest i've seen, gloss black is an immense colour!! and couldent believe how fresh, cleand and immaculate the car looked.
on some 18 inch OZ mag style wheels that would deffenitley be the nicest looking escos out there. still looks stunning on the rondells though.
immense car mate!!! sounded lovely and quiet too.

Ricky treated it like his own and i think he didnt want to give me the keys!! Haha
His mind is made up now and he wants an Escos!
Great to hear the love is coming back mate, I thought it might.
