its not modified yet, but heres a few pics of my mk5 facelift diesel escort van. just mopped it as it had sign writing on, then washed and waxed for that mirror finish!
got the odd dent and little rust here and there but its never been welded and pulls like a train. possibly be doing an rs2000 conversion in the future but for now its serving me well enough to get me to and from the golf course
