Default *****A few pics of my two!*****

Here's a few of my esc on the way to national day, small turbo lux, done 26,000 miles from new, only paintwork its ever had is the front bumper!





And here's my recently aquired 4x4 saph, bought of the second owner who's had it since it was 2.5yrs old, just turned 38k, its on the back of my trailer ready to go for some pampering!

Its completely standard bar a stainless steel exhaust, owner only ever really used it to go to church on a Sunday (see bootlid! )

My plans for this is to make it into a track car for next year, stage3, t34 0.48, comps, suspension and ap's.

Really would be a shame though as it really has potential for standard concours

Couple of beautiful Cosworth's you've got there mate.

The photos don't show just how nice your Escort really is.

The Saph. is too nice to mod. and track, you're more suited to buftying anyway mate!

Cheers mate

Photo's dont do they, blame caroline (karls missis!!) but then red never really pictures well, the above under bonnet shot shows how red it really is!

Agree with you reg saph, if someone offers me good money for it i'll sell it and get a more "mod-able" example, it really is untouched. Still got dealer plates, tax disc holder, key rings boot badge etc...... really had an easy life!!

Karlos get some more of yours on here!

I'd go for a lot less mint Saph. as a track car, gives you more cash for modding!

They'll be plenty of people wanting that car as it is mate, mint standard Saphs. are very rare these days.

My intentions arnt to make it into an out an out track car, just want something thats more usable, putting the escort on track isnt an option

I'm not going to be caging, bucket seating it up etc!

Stage 3, nice wheels and brakes, anything done will be reversable, so when the time comes to sell it'll be standard

Why? I suppose because the car seems more vulnerable on the track than on the road. There's so few mint standard RS's left that it seems a shame to put another one at risk.

True there are a few people who track mint RS's and good luck to them I say, I just hope they're never involved in any incidents.

To be fair a mint car is probably the best kind of car to start with in a way, look at Steve B's RS1800 but it's just not something I would do personally.

Whatever you do decide to track I'll be expecting a passenger ride!
