As the title really. I have been into Fords all my life. Although I now run Saabs, my love for classic (or older Fords) remains. I don't run them any long as I simply cannot afford them any longer, sadly.....

So back to the title - what is your fave period?

For me it would be early '80s through to around '91.

Fave cars are;

Escorts/Orions mk3 & 4
Granadas
Sierras

I have such fond memories of hanging around my local main dealerships (Central Ford - Leicester, Smith Millington - Mkt Harborough) looking in the showrooms! Good times......

What do you think??

has to be the 80's, so many iconic cars built by ford in that decade

Brooklands

After around the early '90s, things were never quite the same again.......for me at least.....

Rod-Tarry

1950's for me my first cars were in that era. Not had a Ford other than my Cossie since 1977 which probably sums up what i think of them .

80,s without a doubt ,but i think its all relative to the era your interest in cars first started

Magnum PI

quite a few iconic cars out in the 80's.

However, in terms of car design, I quite like the period in which the Puma, Cougar, Ka and Mondeo ST24 were out.

Dan cosworth 4x4

Mid 80's to early 90's

The start of the turbo nutters era

5 turbo, uno turbo, RS turbo, MG montego, maestro and metro turbo, charade GTti, 944 turbo, mighty cossie....

Those were the days

Do like the fact that any rs model launched is hyped and talked about so much though..
