Default Just Bought My First Ford

I've just bought a '97 Ford Escort 1800 Si - and I love it

I've wanted a ford for a while now, and finally got one - and it's so fun

I have so many things I want to do to it, Suspension, Brakes, RS2000 Styling, RS7 Wheels, Turbo Conversion... But just don't know where to start.

I even started a site with a mate, now I'm an official Passionate Ford Owner

It's a good choice mate - I started with one as my first car, and did:

RS2000 kit
GTi half leather interior
Konis
17s
Exhaust
K&N
Hi-Spec big brake conversion

Best of luck with it
