Plenty of people outside of the UK on here... Also I'm sure plenty of non-UK spec Fords/imports too.
So lets see some pix of your cars

Why does the focus back bumper stick out 2 foot?? I assume its to absorb impact when some one who its too distracted by their starbucks drives into you? But it looks nasty imo.

Nice looking Fords Stefaan!
Hot looking Sierra!!
The black focus is a US model 2007 that look carried through 05-07. The reason for the huge back bumper US safty reasons..... It makes for a good chair

Here's a few new pics I shot today. Car is a 1991 Ford Probe 2.2 GT Turbo. They were developed and built in the US, however also officially imported into Germany in the early Nineties. Basically it's a Mazda 626 in disguise. Engine is a turbocharged inline-four, 2.2 litre, 12 valve. It's got tons of torque (for a standard car that age anyways), peak power on std boost is 147 bhp at only 4200 rpm. The standard engine is derived from a small japanese lorry and therefore pretty much bullet-proof. In the US similar cars on a std engine are common to produce well over 200 reliable bhp with a re-map only.

That Capri..... WOW!
@Antti O: How do you find it working with the MegaSquirt? Easy or a lot harder than you had thought? Untill now, I've been really happy with how it's been working out on my 24v Sierra. Sure, it's quite a learning curve but certainly not undo-able. Going to get mine mapped next saturday.
Yours is a MS I as well? V3.0 board?

I'm trying to set up the Owners Club and sort out our first meet, will post something up when it's done! Never seen more than 3 Escos together at one time here! You have more chance of seeing a Ferrari F50 or Enzo on the roads than an Escos!

Well i think its working 90% by now, i have little problems with ignition but nothing too big and i have drove last summer with megasquirt & cdi system and cars run much better than ke-jetronic system and fuel economy is better. I have 390cc bosch motorsport fuel injectors. I will change ignition to EDIS4 system cos i now that will work fine. Mapping is quite easy, i have done that with my friends and for my self. I think ignition mapping is most difficult thing and those accelerating enrichments.
RST Appie:
Your escort looking absolutely stunning and i like that much, but when i see ke-jetronic in your enginebay...? And where did you bought that chromed crossover pipe+charge pipe set? Those look stunning. Also want those

Hi again from Finland!
Just taken those today, car has temporary wheels which are used only in winter garaging. Rear window is missing etc.. but better pictures than before. For summer i have 5 kpl original rs turbo wheels refurbished with fresh set of T1R. Dumpvalve is disconnected at the moment. Car is dusty, sitting in the garage since august..As you can see, we have snow about 40cm which is normal this time of year, summer driving season starts in april.
