Theres something strangely cool about these. I used to hate them but now I kinda prefer them to the 'sportier' 3 door escort.
Either I'm going daft with age or its a rarity thing I guess...??
Congrats on getting the 'look' 100% spot on. So many people over-cook it. 2 simple colours, the silver and the black. Its perfect you need not add or take anything away.
