yep, it's like the perfect car needed these Morettes just to finish it off 
ps i've been looking at your spec. card and i do have a question about it; do you
have any problems with the Goodridge braided brakeline hoses when your car needs his "Technische keuring?

Had to go to MOT today 
Since I didn't feel like changing her back to normal I decide to just give it a go...
MOT in Belgium is
'coz they seem to make up new rules every day
But...
Passed without any remarks

Just picked up my new brakes and dizzyless ignition setup
Thanks to Mike R for supplying the brakes and answering the few questions I had about them 
Thanks to Stu for the dizzyless setup. Although it's gonna take me days to get that stuff installed
And of course a HUGE thanks to Geert (Speedy G.) for bringing all that stuff back to Belgium with him
Some pics of the brakes

Blue escos, sierra, ... rings a bell?
I NEVER said I wanted to sell the EsCos because it was having problems of some sort. I know very well the car was in perfect condition, but it's still just a car
If I would have to choose between a weekend EsCos or a daily Focus RS, I would pick the Focus any day. You should be able to just take the car and drive it. Whether it's raining, snowing or whatever. With the EsCos I really didn't like the idea of cleaning all that bling every time I took the car out. Had even considered removing all that stuff and just put it back to standard, but IMHO (!!) a Focus RS is a better every day car than the EsCos.
It has been gone one week now and I didn't even think about it for one second untill you mentioned it
I think more about our Sierra Cos to be honest. If I had the choice to pick one car, I'd choose the Sapph
Especially if you've driven the EsCos 
Maybe someday another Cos will find it's way to our driveway, but for now we're perfectly happy with the Focus

What would be better: buying car nr 397 or changing the plate
No, would have been nice if it was BKN-398 - or even better FRS-398 - but I'm not spending 500€ on a licence plate

I dont see the problem in driving the escort every day
And you always told me that the escort was your dreamcar..
I am afraid you will get bored with it in a while.. and start modding.. when there is nothing left to mod.. (you might even buy a license plate
)You will buy a cosworth again ..

When did you drive the EsCos? Do you know what price Jack wants to have for it?
If I had the money, I would buy this EsCos right now!
But unfortunately I don't have the money, and I have to sell the Sierra first....
What about the black EsCos?? When is it finished?

Didn't react like this when they told me but hey, it's their choice and the Focus RS is so lovely aswell.
