Now on flat face MOs so the escos wheels are gone.

Need to sort the brakes and tidy some bits up first but long term I'm looking at carbon fibre and turbos

I agree. Escos' are nice but I prefer what it sits on now. Looking at getting some pro race 1.2s with some sticky tyres for track. Need some money again first though!

TBH I would say it's a result it's not on Escort Cossie rims anymore, they always look good but make the car drive like shit!

Remember the conversion and feature on this car
