Default Hello from Scotland

Hey guys and girls. Just bought myself a black 92 s2 escort rst. Kinda turning my back on the jap scene for a while and as i've always wanted an rs i thought now would be as good a time as ever.

Been browsing the site for the last week or so trying to read up on as much info as possible as this is all so new to me. Please excuse the onslaught of any newbie questions i'm sure i'll have.

The car is away having a new mot put on it but when i get it back i'll stick up a few pics once it's been washed an polished.

Cheers
Melly

My 400bhp gt4 wrc

Yeah he put a new engine from ford in it 14k ago. The gearbox was rebuilt and fitted with a organic clutch.

It's a nice clean car and can't wait to get it on the road this week as i still aint had it out properly yet
