Default South Coast Escort GTi

Hello all, ive been lurking on here for a few months now, tho havent really posted too much, so im a relative noob.

I havent put any photos of my car on here yet, but i bought a set of kahns off a lad on here (liammcl - top bloke) a few weeks back and got round to fitting them the other day. Thought id stick some piccies of how my Escorts running at the moment as ill be leaving it as it is for a while now.

I bought it as a bog standard Escort GTi, but have gradually added a few subtle mods:

Full s/s 3.5" piper cat back system
-35mm Jamex suspension kit
6 spd intermittent wipers
Clear repeaters
Renault Espace splitter
Debadged boot
17" Kahn RSR's

As standard (apart from the exhaust which id added by this point)



As she is now with Liam's old wheels...








i havent got any more immediate plans as money is now a bit tight as im saving up to go travelling next year, but id eventually like to add some morettes, sort the brakes out and then start laying into the engine, possibly 2ltr it etc.

comments welcome

cheers mate, yeah its peachy, dont think itd seen the rain before i bought it last year as there wasnt a spot of rust on it.

nothing worse than seeing a nicely modded escort ruined by the dreaded rust.

No the si is still living near by, sold it to a mate for Ł400, I just didnt like it, always going wrong and the 306 came up cheap so i had it! its super clean, not a dent on it,

Anyway this thread is about your car!
