mk4 escort 1600 sport
escort sport ,ive only had her 2 months and has already changed so much,and so much more to come,needs a tailgate ,and thats pretty much how i want the body to look ,maybe a little lower
engine is standard at the min ,so a naughty cvh on 40s would be nice ,not wanting to take the charactor of the car way ,
heres how i bought her 2 months ago ,
and at present ,

Lovely mate, stick with it
I had a strato silver Escort sport, on an early XR2/3 carb, cam, Ashley four branch and system, K+N, and lowered about 40mm. It was the most fun car i've had. Absolute hoot, was my daily plus it went all over the place to shows and meets and was dead reliable, nice and simple to work on, not overtly fast, but sounded the part, handled really well, and certainly drew attention. Sold it to fund an RS Turbo that still hasn't been on the bloody road
