MK5 Escort Equipe 1.4 for me, in pacifica blue, as my first car. Had it a couple of years, then sold it on, it survived another year or so then disappeared.

Funnily enough, after a load of other Escorts and things, and the T-5, I've just bought another little 1.4 Equipe to run about in. Really loved them, this is my third and hoping to take this one a bit further than I did the others!

First and possibly last:

1.8 tdci ford focus from 02

this focus has been my first car, and its been awesome, but dunno i'd like to mix it up and buy something different next time. Still, id miss the heated screen ...the thought of this makes me cry

always liked my zetec s mk5, so much so i have 4 of them at the moment, as well as a focus st3 soon to be replaced by a mk4 rs

I was very dissapointed with it, cause my mate wrote it off before I ever got to drive it properly, lol

It was a stolen recovered one, didnt owe me much, so not as bad as it sounds!

Now its a different shell, its yellow and its not a 500 anymore, but I like it now
