Default RS200's

Thats right, RS200's

There is static display of anything up to a dozen RS200's on Saturday 13th August at Chelmsford Museum, Moulsham Street, Chelmsford. Also there will be the Hart Turbo powered Beatrice Lola F1 car. Two of the original works cars will be on display, first time together in many years.

The day is part of the museum exhibition of Boreham Airfield, Wings, Wheels and Dwellings. Many of the original Boreham mechanics are coming along, so if you fancy soaking up just a little bit of the Boreham atmosphere, come on over. Entry is free!

If anyone has ans Escos they would like to put on display for the day, drop me a PM!

Cheers,

Old RS

Fair question, I will see what I can do.

A couple of magazines should be coming along, so hopefully some features in the near future as well!

Saw one last week at a garage near Knutsford...Broken Cross I think. It was absolutely immaculate and was running P700 tyres which looked original. Next door to it was a road spec Lancia Delta S4! Made my day!!

Default Boreham, RS200's

Thanks Alo,

We now have a proper works Escort Cosworth, the last model that Boreham did. Remember the Escos Monte?

I think we have the guy who built that original engine coming along as well!

Guys,

Need a bit of help, had a let down on a couple of cars for this show, still got RS200's, but am now missing a Cossie 3door, preferably a rally car. Anyone fancy putting their pride and joy on display in Chelmsford for a few hours?

Same applies to a MK11 Escort, a Grp 4 car would be good.

Praying for a bit of good news!!!!!!!!!

PM me if you can or 07521 803489

Regards

Hi All,

The show yesterday proved to be a huge success, seeing 7 RS200's, 2 Escort Cosworths (Aaron, I thought your car was stunning, can I get a longer look sometime please!) 2 Saph Coswoths and a sweet S1 Escort, the gentleman came for a look, we parked his car on display!

The Fast Ford guy must have taken a thousand photo's, he filled a notebook with interview notes, so look out for something good in the mag.

It may just happen again next year.......

looks sweet all those RS200. Also a car where I have good memories off, car with 86200 on the plate its from Luxembourg. But the driver is female called Jenny, see now lives in Luxembourg but is original from Netherlands. I had the change to drove one time with that car on passenger seat. Amazing machine very fast and that noise puts a smile on my face at the memories of it

As I promised to everyone I chatted to at the show, the proof copy of the book that was at the show has finally turned into a box of proper hardback copies ready to go.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=330609458153

Thanks for all your support on the day to both me for the website and Simon for organising the event - cracking day - I think we need a Essex FORD / Rally event EVERY year - Hylands Park maybe !?!?
