i wouldnt listen to MADrod your car will handle far superior to his anyway so you will most likely get round the track faster and still look much better than a taxi

hater... are you for real? if by saying that the side skirts imho look bare that makes me a hater... then so be it!

being haters and suffering with the green eyed monster disease are not something that the Reyland posse suffer from..... sorry if that disappoints

Trouble is phil is just waiting for someone to say something negative about his hard work so he can have an arguement about it and so far everyone has liked it and said nice things about it.

Phil get a new pair of indicators from Ford as 2nd hand ones are mostly faded just changed mine for new ones and they are so much brighter!
Front indicator RHD 6096586
Front indicator LHD 6096588

If you you want 2nd hand faded ones you can have my old ones

Ambers and RS500 grills will look the nuts!

Looks the dogs danglies Phil awesome.

Love the look of escorts with the cage in

Quick question for you, would that cage fit in with all the std trim in place?

As i will be looking to run the car at "a few" track days once its new powerplant is in it might be an idea to fit one but i would like to keep all the trim in place.

p.s glad you found that torx / star bit that went awol in the engine bay

If Rod did say that than the comment is almost as ridiculous as his one about Stians WRC Escort(I believe Fast Ford or Performance labelled it as "the worlds best cossie").But as said Phil car looks sweet, sits nice too , is it just normal Koni set up or Avo or summit

Yeah, but the poster's replica IS a COPY of the actual Rally car which is a LHD car.

Fill in the blank - Colin McRae's Rally car was a ________ Hand Drive Ford Escort Cosworth.

I would have thought they can be specified to whatever the driver prefers.

The shells can be either, and are both available for homologation, so I can't see it making a difference, but I prepare to be corrected!

Yes, but you said (and I quote ) "No real rally car is RHD". You now stand corrected .

I think proper Grp.A couldn't be RHD because of big front diff though. Tim Finch posted about tha somewhere on PF.

Maybe this one had some compromise made on it or something. I do not know, I am not an expert in any way - just repeat what somebody who is supposed to know a it about Grp. A cars have written.
