its in the blood mate, ive never owned a cossie or RS, but have owned plenty of fords in the past, i now drive a laguna, only had it since august and im back on the ford hunt.

every car I have owned has been a ford this is due to my dad being the same up until my mum wanted a corsa

He now owns another S2 tho

Get yourself a MK1 as you wont be happy if you dont

i was never bothered about Fords, id always been a Vauxhall fan for over 10 years.
Was never even bothered by RS's or Cosworths atall and for some reason when a mate came round about 2 years ago in his Escort Cossie i just got hooked.

Brand new Vectra Gsi was sold back to a local dealer within weeks and i got my first Escort Cossie, 2 years later and ive had 2 Escort Cossies & 2 Sierra 3dr Cossies and its now definetly in my blood!

david

No worries mate , felt a bit guilty TBH after you buying the S2 turbo brake setup

caprixpack

ive always loved classic fords but never had enough money to afford one or insure 1 as im only just turned 20 but have now managed to scrape enough money to buy one so hopefully ill be riding round in a ford. coz im fed up of driving this jap crap that i have now, Driving a k reg Nissan Sunny 1.4 LX and the only reason im driving that is coz i wreked my nova LOL

Ive had everything but always come back to fords.....

Im mainly into vauxhalls, for the simple reason that in 9/10 circumstances they have better engines than the ford equivalent car, the exception being the cossie, but to be honest i think of that as a cosworth not a ford anyway TBH.

I'll say this much though, based on this site compared to the vauxhall site i normally use (migweb.co.uk) ford owners seem to know a hell of a lot more about tuning their cars.

On a ford forum, has a nova in his sig

wheres my shotgun

well if the 3 door ever runs a quicker time i'll move that to my sig, lol

we have allways been a ford family
corsairs, cortina's,anglia's,escorts,zodiac's,consuls,granad a's,scorpio's,sierra's and cossies . its only me that has sampled some of the german and japanese stuff but i allways come back to the blue oval so i think i can safely say its all my dads fault why i waste money on the things

James_RScos

Yes no question about it

pete@RACE-SPCMOTORSPORT

i'd have to say that it runs in the family and yeah its in the blood.

my dad has always had fords as far as i know and i'm the same.

SapphyMike

i can take or leave fords tbh..

I only own a ford cos it was cheap, and its better the devil you know..

now Cosworth, thats different... i've gotta sell mine, but i will get get another when the time is right..

Defo! The folkes went through a bunch of capri's the best one being the mk1 3.0s, me brother started in a mk3 escourt as did I, and went on to own a cortina with triple carbs, and xr2, and thats about as high up the ladder as he got, I started off with the mk3 1.3 escourt, a sweet little car, then went onto a 1.6 orion, which was a pain in the aRSe, then had a 2.0 mondeo si, that was a very reliable solid car which was sold to my sister, then onto the present day with me saff 4x4
