Well if that's the real price it pisses on any Cortina or Capri I was planning on as a project car, not that I have £3k atm, but that won't last forever. I might keep my eye out for one of those when the time comes.

Is it me or does that seem far too cheap? http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C402024 I know it says sills need welding but even so, they go for way more money that that normally. ​

I was 1 in 76.

Not a clue mate, i've got one of the original RSTuners where all the maps were free after you bought the unit, over run map or pops and bangs hadn't been written yet, plus mine unit support those files. I just got an RST and cal file I was happy with and stuck with it, ​the car's been that way...

RSTuner 98ron map, no other mod has improved the car as much as this, it solved so many of it's problems, smoother running, better cold starts, more grunt lower down. Although atm i'm currently enjoying my lowered drivers seat, plastic things binned, carpet cut away so it sits on bare metal...

Hers was a 1.1 originally, but the engine blew up so she had a 1.4 dropped in.

It's got a real Mad Max quality to it.

I've just put that last one on my desktop, i've been staring at it for the last ten minutes.

Yep, back in the 80s as a kid, if you fell out the car in the event of a crash, it was your own stupid fault. lol Kids were tough back then, ​if you really were injured someone might dab a bit of TCP on you if you were lucky.

Our one didn't even have rear seatbelts, so at 70mph on the motorway I was lay flat having a kip. lol

The canary yellow Mk1 1.4 Fiesta I was taken to school in for most of my childhood, felt like a bit of an embarrassment to me as a kid, when everyone else's parents had big engined saloons. But looking back it was the coolest car my Mum has ever owned. This isn't it, but it's exactly what it...

Same here mate, dog kennel with style.

Bell Green's where it's at son, Ghetto life! Oh and welcome to the club. :D

My god, I think this might be the greatest thread in the history of the internet.

Just Capri's or all 80s fast Fords?

I've always found that when people sl*g off someone's car over another car I always say, 'why do you care'? That seems to confuse the sh*t out of them and they don't have a come back.

Capri's were the first cars I saw with massive body kits bolted on in the 80s, I think enough time has passed for people to forget they were generally driven by bell ends. lol But then again XR2i's, XR3i's, RS Turbo's & even Cosworth's were driven by the same kind of nobs, luckily that...

Currently obsessed with Capri's, I think it's because i've got 'The Professionals' on series link. I know most people like nice shiny mint cars, but I like filthy knackered rat looking cars. ​

Bad sh*t man.

I'd love to own a cafe racer or to build a Triton, but i'd only ride motorbikes if all cars are banned from the roads, UK roads are ​too bloody dangerous for my liking.

Sell it and buy a classic Kev, you know it makes sense. ;)

This is my favourite thread of all time.

You need to start a project thread on your RS Turbo!!!

I don't think i've ever seen an Anglia estate on the road, that's a cool car, dog carrier with style. Ford Popular 100e's, well in to them atm.

The dog kennel's premium has gone from £450-£400ish in the past few years, and I live in a sh*t hole estate in Coventry, Brentacre are the best insurers i've ever had.

For some reason I like this too.

When I have enough money to buy a reliable car, ​hasn't happened yet.

I'm alive, although I can't shake the feeling I need to apologise for something, f*ck knows what though. lol Once the corners of vision went black and couldn't balance anymore, I knew I needed some alone time to get my sh*t together, didn't work though. :( Typical that at my absolute worst...
