Just given my Son his first project........A 1990 4x4 cossie....
He`s 15.........
No motor and box in it though so hes gonna have to get working on it and saving hard for all his bling.....
Got about 14 months before he can drive so plenty of time to build it.......Fook knows how i am gonna get him insured,will have to try and swing it to get him on the Trader policy.......

Second Ford road car Mk2 Escort estate with 2.1 Pinto and 5 speed box.
3 litre 4 door Mk1 Escort
3 litre capri's, I've had four of them
2.8i Capri
Supercharged 3.5 V8 Clasic Consul
Ford 302/5 litre V8 manual Mk2 Cortina 2 door
3 door cossie rep with 2 litre pinto and twin 40's
3 door Mk 2 shape Sierra with 4.5 333bhp manual V8
Mk1 XR2 (the shame of front wheel drive 
)

1990 H plate fiesta pop plus at 17
1990 G plate Escort XR3i at 18 (1500 tpft on own policy to insure)
1990 G plate fiesta diesel van 1.8 at 18 (1300 tpft and could have walked quicker)
1988 E plate sierra 1.8 pinto (in the sig) at 18 (went on dads policy)
1988 E plate sapphire cossie (in the sig) at 23 (1300quid tpft on own policy)
Currently got a Subaru Liberty RX and a Lexus IS200 although looking at the GTR path instead. Lexus now costs me under 200 quid to insure fully comp and is valued at 16K simply because the insurance people dont have a bracket for driving since 17 here as the locals have to be 18 for a full licence)
