some of my old cars 1999-2012

the 1st car i actually owned was a 3 door blue mk3 escort 1.3 at the age of 15!!!! (i dont have any pics of this atm) & it got the springs cut, xr3i spoilers/splitters & a set of dog leg wheels
next up at the age of 16 was a escort van decked on venons, single back door, roof spoiler, 88 spec front bumper cut out & all touched up/colour coded with a spray can! lol
started life as a 1.3 crossflow but done a deal wit ha mate that if i helped turbo up his van ide get his 1.6 cvh running gear & a deal was done.
1.3 bonus turbo rep
this started off life as a 1.4cvh ex police car & had various looks in the time i owned it

PassionFord Post Whore!!
Mate, that XR2 turbo was mine, you buy it off Jim?
The colour was not meant to come out like that - had that car while i was at college then uni - good fun car that took tons of abuse and was totally reliable and economical when driven nicely

i used to break rs's many yrs ago & have prob broken twice the amount as above
lol the problem with the blue sierra was........... THE HEAD WAS LOOSE! lol

i hated the colour but had never owned an xr2 turbo so brought it for that factor.
ran fine on idle whn i got it but dropped down on boost, turned out to be 1 seriously worn cam lobe. fitted a new cam & jesus this thing was rapid!!!! it would spin the 13's up in the wet in 5th! ran about 18-20psi
i sold it 2 a mate who killed it & chirs from sheffiled brought it used it abused it & broke it

years ago i had about 4/5 cars on the go at once & never kept a car more then a few weeks!! lol
had plenty of fun over the years & have now ended up with a bog std series 1 rs turbo that im goin to use as my daily when home.
i love the looks on peoples faces when they see the old fords as not many get used everyday nowadays & people dont realise how quick they still are compare to some of the modern stuff.
the longest ive kept a car is just over a year & that was the white saff & in that time i musta only done 2000 miles if that, deadly in the wet & cost a fortune to fun so opted for a poofty front wheel drive that i can let the mrs use aswell.
my ultimate car is a series 1 rs turbo 4wd i think so who knows whats on the cards next...........
