Believe they're modifying cars rather than producing them. Even if not, you can produce a brand new MK2 escort now so I should imagine a 5 wouldn't be too hard.

28th is the same date as the ktec open day if that affects anything.

Wasn't the rust around. The windscreen a recall you could do?

Definitely a Honda screen.

I inherited an fn2. Quite liked it aside from two things; The seats not fitting my McDonald's honed frame and if you were a few inches off getting in and sat on a bolster you needed to call the osteopath. Also, they have a quite dramatically curved windscreen and it slightly distorts the...

Sounds like we used to be neighbours @DaveDreads

First wash! Scrubs up alright.

Guess what I drove home last night... Luckily a mate had a spare head so that's gone on, seems to be running well, compression and leakdown all good so hopefully we're back on track. Friend was doing it on lunch breaks etc at the garage he works at so it's taken a little while. In other...

Wasn't me! She's getting married in a fortnight I hear.

To be fair they've broken up now and he's back to being a normal reasonable bloke.

Make sure you check the faces of it really well before you install, they're prone to leaking.

Got both full interior and arch liners on the cup. Shame it doesn't have an engine 🤣

I have a ph1 in need of recommissioning I haven't advertised yet. If that's the going rate I might not bother!

Far too many 🤣 red wolf, Logun MK2, ultishot, lgv, tx200sr are a few highlights!

You can tell I spend too much time around airguns. 210 psi!

Well it's not been the brightest day of ownership today. Went to drop the Mrs (no) to work this morning and the car made a loud rattle and came to an abrupt stop in my road. Initially thought a dropped valve however on bringing it back in and investigating the bolts on the alternator were...

Pics of Mrs.

Driveway is being done so the vee is stranded in the garage for a few weeks. Rare sighting of the vee and the ph1 together.

Undo the bolt at the top and remove the gearknob. Add a spacer made from whatever rubber hose fits between the spring and the gear knob. Totally resolved mine.

Michael Bickerton. Actually seemed like a nice bloke, came to CSS 14.

Is that one @Daniel sold new?

That's a bummer. Sell the seats for circa a grand and sit so etching comfy from corbeau.

Get yourself a set of the bucket seat head rests for the recaros. Made a big difference in the vee being able to support my neck. £30 on eBay.

I might come up in the v6/cup/whatever is working

Update... Still an utterly reliable car. Went to see the in-laws today, Cheltenham and back and stopped in at Costco on the way home. Dog needed a new bed and they had decent but massive ones. It was a little warm when I got back but who says a vee isn't practical? It's essentially a...

A friend used to use an r26 as a trackday car, was utterly reliable. Can't see why it wouldn't be the same transplanted into a 197.

Yes then.

With the hilarious insta name?

Right then, original misfire was the coil pack. The new misfire/made it worse was the walbro kinking it's fuel hose and running dry.

Apparently done in the last thousand miles. If it was injectors that'd be ideal, already have 225 ones in the bodies.
