If it's decent, buy it. Cups are just cooler and will, ultimately, always be worth more. £2k seems fairly cheap. Can always sell it on if you don't like it. Anyone who says that a normal 1*2 is the same as a Cup is just jealous because their car isn't special :ROFLMAO:

Few more...

Went to the last enthusiasts day at Ford head office today. They're closing the site later this year and moving to Dunton, so it was the last one. Was an anniversary celebration for the Capri too.

I fitted Vibratechnics mounts and Powerflex black dog bone bushes to my road car, because I'm an idiot :ROFLMAO: To be fair, I didn't drive it daily, so I quite liked that it felt so extreme. This looks like a nice solution, surprised you haven't had more interest.

Capri 280 Brooklands

What sort of money was it, if you don't mind my asking?

Yeah looks like it. This Megane appears to have the same gear lever:

That's quite a purchase! Judging by the lever, is it one from a Megane Cup race car? Should make quite a difference. I want one :(

Saw this while out for work today:

Interesting build this. As someone from the rallying world, little cars like this interest me, as I think they represent the future. What do you reckon the upper limits are of the engine? With the capacity multiplier, it would still sit in the 2.0-litre class, but it could offer decent torque...

I do like these a lot. You'll spend all your money on fuel, but at least it will sound good while you're doing it. Are they reliable? I would imagine the mechanicals are fairly simple.

Had a weird mental image of some kind of heath robinson spacecraft behind the dealership there for some reason...

I do love a Sunflower Ph.1. White would be my ultimate preference, but it's definitely the nicest factory colour.

Cars are stunning. That many One:1s in one place is pretty mental. There were too many "ones" in the sentence too lol. Dealership looks pretty shonky though. Not exactly what you'd expect for that kind of car.

According to this... http://www.theinvestor.co.kr/view.php?ud=20181021000165 ...the target for 2018 was 2800 cars across Europe, and it looks like they almost doubled that. My local dealer said they are selling better than expected. There have been pictures online of a more hardcore version...

I do! But I think it might be possible to get a replica R5 kit for that, and that's much wider. Wider = better lol Might chance my arm and see if they'd do anything trade, but I doubt it. I suppose I wouldn't need the arch liners I guess, but it's still mega money considering the manufacturing...

Turns out it is the kit by Tarnock Garage, based loosely on the R5 Fiesta. Dropped them a note today - £2,500 + £200 for arch liners ?

Just had a quick Google. It looks like the kit might be one that Tarnock Garage have fitted to a couple of cars. One of the nicer looking wide arch kits for the MK7, outside of the proper R5 stuff, which is mega money!

Nice upgrade that! Get them for a decent price?

Nice to see that Orion is still about. Was a nicely put together car as I recall. Don't suppose you got any other pictures of the wide-arch Fiesta ST? Wonder what kit that is? What's odd is that there is a thread for a Ford show on here, but I didn't see anything about it on any Ford forum I use ?
