New member and A brief introduction
Hi, seeing as I have started using this site recently I thought I would introduce myself.
I am 23 and am a Ford nut through and through. I currently work within the motortrade. My Ford cars are an Escort RS turbo and Saff 4x4. The Escort is my first car and the Cossie just had to be done. Those with Cossie's know what I mean!!
Some of you may recognise the turbo from when it was featured in Performance Ford a few years back. This was done with the help of Dave Moore whom I have known since before he joined the Performance Ford team. The Cossie is something of a childhood dream come true which I have owned for 2 years now which mainly remains as I bought it apart from an few performance upgrades to the engine. I try to keep them both in good condition and only use them on nice days and the odd show. During the wet/winter weather they rest in a dry workshop to maintain there conditon.
Ok so some pics of my babies!!

Hi,
Just a thought but did the series 2 rs start life as a 1.3??? I'm sure I remember reading about it.
Stunning cars - especially to own at 23!!! You must be best friends with the insurance people.
Good work.

This is the car I was thinking of, can just see the bonnet scoop: looks like it's off a nissan patrol or something similar 4x4: very large and flat. Been magazine featured a few times. All smoothed and vee-dub styled.
