Can I ask how much cash you ploughed into it ? Was it standard when you got it ?
194mph is mad !! What sort of times did it do 60 and 100 in ?
A quite new dude on here has one in Imperial too, iirc it has a 'Paul' reg plate on it. You may know of him ?
I have no clue about stuff mate. I just like the Megs one.
Actually if PM you a 'shopping list' can you tell me exactly which thnigs to buy ? I'm crap mate.
The ones I mention are off of those. The 172 (phase 2 five spokes are called alium) the dynamique ones that look the same are 15's.
182 wheels either come in silver or anthracite (dark grey) 16's in both colours.
Breakers, ebay. Or pay to become a member on here as folk sell them on here.
Painted won't look nice, black looks better.
You can sand the araldite off yeah, just be sure not to touch the splitter with the emery paper. I'd mask off the splitter round the glue bit & do it.
15's from a dynamique will fit on it, as will phase 2 172 ones (16 inch) they may rub a bit though. Phase 1 172 wheels (oz's) will fit on it.
Or even some 182 wheels, also 16 inch. Lots of choice tbh.
I'd go no bigger than 16's - 15's if you want better 'driveability' etc.
- and remember to...
I was looking through a Fast Ford mag earlier as I knew i'd seen a pic of the Escort recently.
In the Nov Cossie special theres a pic of it on an article for the RS national day:)
Did you partake in the Bruntingthorpe shoot out ?
How comes you decided to break it up ?
You can turn the interior sensors off yeah. I think you have to turn they key back & forth a few timers (but not so it starts the car) It'll then make a beep noise.
What year (reg) is your car ?
