Them smiley face trannys go forever. There miles better than the newer trannys.

Looks like a go show. Do you know the ginger welsh boyo Alan then (cossied mk1 focus owner).

Well for 2015 I've got some plans.....


Mainly based around finishing my Escos, and as I want Recaros in that it was time to swap seats for set of Corbeaus I had lying around :cry::cry:

Got drivers seat changed first to see if they clear the cage, and all us good :top:

Hopefully get passenger one swapped next week.



And I guess rest of year will see it evolve or break down :DD:

Trusty 2.5Di :top:

Yeah unfortunately I do :cry: :cry:

What a nice car !

Rich , wtf was I doing lurking around your car here ??:cry:

Have you started a thread on your escos at all?

The question should be have you started the escoz at all lol

I tell you wot mate your car better be running well on the 28th feb at Bedford as there is going to be a focos all over you all day lol
It's going to be a fun day mate I can not wate . The seats look good

Looking good mate :top:

I bet its loads better with the seats on the floor mate.

Thanks mate :top:


I did wonder, you must of been having a moment :cry:


Been working on it a while now, I'm taking pics as we go but intend to debut it as a 'fresh' project ;-)


Looking forward to it Ian :blabla:


Thanks Marco :top:


Even being on the slider it feels better, got another 30mm down and about 40-50mm back to go. Probably going to have to modify seat bars but that's no hassle.

Not looked at this car in a while, hope everything is going well Richie

I knew it would feel loads better.

Will the drivers window go up. It looks like the seat is sticking out the door.

Awesome car, awesome build and an awesome read! How did you get the AIM dash to work with the l8 ecu? Did you use lots of separate sensors? I've been wanting a digital dash for ages but was under the impression that they don't work with the cosworth ecu, I have an l6 at the mo.

more info on the escos needed lol, is it just a refresh or something as good as this

I think Ritchie runs the ka on emerald bud..

Thanks, sorry must've missed that bit, I was living in hope

As Doug said, it's on Emerald and the dash runs via canbus so simples ;-)

Patience :cry:


Not as subtle as the Ka, but certainly equal, probably better tbh :DD:

Remember reading about this little beast in fast ford!!! Awesome car pal!!!

Cheers :top:

Been after a Streetka for the wife for a while now, even bought a hardtop three years ago ready for when I got one.
Bought one last month and typically came with a hardtop as well, oh well :cry:

Fitted some Compomotive THs and a Seat Cupra R splitter and had it cleaned :cool:

Must resist the urge to Cossie it :DD:

Cool little car mate.

Definitely 4x4 and cossie it

That looks wicked with them wheels on it

That style seems to suit all Kas

Attachment 25337

Its hard to say what to do to the CosKa because its such an all round decent motor. Powerful enough, well tricked out, nice bodywork etc.

Nice Richie :top:

Cossie it :cry::DD:

Hobomassiv.... your ka looks mint.

So youve got 3 ka's now? lol.

Cossie it that would be cool and get a thread up for your escos too pal :D

very nice

The stunt double got scrapped.

Not mine :) Belongs to a dutch user called 'Sjon' from what I remember. Mine has the same bumpers but cossie wheels. (and is in peices lol)

Such an awesome car and project mate, well done. Bet the result is amazing!

Looks killer as well

Cheers Glenda :top:


Thanks :top: She loves it ! And the car ;-)

Not listening to you either you crazy Dutch bastard :blabla:

No :cry:


Told you Wozza :DD:


Would be awesome having a 4wd one :cry:

Escos is Top Secret :blabla:


Cheers :top:


Cheers :top:

The standard look was what I wanted from the start, though tbh it looks better than I thought it would :cool:

Looks good Ritchie :clap:
I really want a set of those wheels for my fiesta.

Told you I'd be back... although I did say it about 6 months ago :cry:

What you up to now then?
