Lol!

Some 3i's had white hub caps mate, they were a pearl white colour. I think the 'dog leg' wheels were an option back then too, my god Ford loved their options!!

What a dickhead, I was hoping he'd smash it up, his passenger was constantly telling him to let them go & not to race but he just carried on. Having said that I do want an R8.

They are truly terrible!

Looks really clean. I too like the colour.

Great shots! I do love the F40 :approve:

Ah Mr B18 - I've seen a few of your cars before, I can't remember where though, possibly in magazines or something. Your Escort is lovely!! Really nice! I used to see a standard white N reg one driven by a woman when I was at school, I still remember the reg, N950 SAX.

Get a life. It's the people who can't spell for sh*t who do my head in. It's 'would' FFS!! Not 'wud'

I was really tempted with this, I can't do camping though. I hate dirt :dead: I've always wanted to go though, arrrgghh!!!!

Fair enough, I still like it :approve:

You could always buy a set of OZ Superturismo's as that's what the V6 wheels are. Knows!

I saw your other thread with this link, so I had to bump it up! F*ck me!!! yep your Escort is seriously mint! I think it looks spot on with the RS 7 spoke wheels on it, as nice as they look on the standard ones, the 17's just look better. I like your FRS too, that also looks mint, but the 90...

That does look properly mint! 90 spec too, cool!!

My dad's seen them moving most of that around as he works near by (still at Fords) I wanna go in there!! They are steel wheels, that ring round the edge comes off. I'm 99% certain that the 'pepper pot' wheels were an optional extra back in the day, but most cars were specced with them, those...

Nice write up. I must do one some time, probs early next year.

Lol!! Nope, they're five stud for a start & the offsets front & rear are totally different on a Mk1, they differ again on the Mk2, but they're 18's so will need load sof work to fit your 172.

This thread has my afternoon. I'll be sure to check back later. Also since when was a 197 £2000 more to buy than a 182 ? I though the difference was a lot more.

Your speakers aren't up to it. Get them changed for some after market ones & you'll notice the difference.

I hate people who do this & find it really annoying. I try to take two spaces if I can, or if not, park it right up in one corner of the space. Some w*nker always parks really close to me in one car park, the same person every time! Jokes on them next time, I'm moving.

I actually like this, it's like BMW puke gold, but it looks good.

I might see if I can put one on my vacuum cleaner, I think that's got a turbo function on it.

Swapz seems a proper chavvy name, I'm not surprised the car wasn't good. Imo sell your car, get the money & go looking. I actually like the look of that cup as a whole, but not the story that goes with it.

I bet if you tried now though it would be a different story.

Some auction places are good, others not so. Often if something's at an auction it's there for a reason! But hat could be any number of things.

I think it looks a bit of a heap, probs ok for the money, but that's all.

I much preferred it without all of the blue bits on it. It looked really smart then.

I think he's asking about 3/4 sized ones ? but the question doesn't make any sense.

Thanks, I'd probably only ever want to go as a passenger, no way I'd want to drive round it. I think now it's more of a fashion thing so it seems to attract a lot of idiots who think it's race, that's my perception.

It's also worth remembering that most manufacturers tend to keep stock of parts for around ten years, so after that (and when people have raided scrap yards etc) they'll be harder to come by. That's one of the reasons that getting parts for old 80's / 90's hot hatches is hard (and expensive)

Lol!!
