Was it a 3MO in the C2 R2, or did I make that up?

Tobacco sponsorship is banned, so I would have thought this would fall under that? I have seen a replica of a Bastos M3 that had been changed to "Basto5" to get round it. Might be worth a flick through the blue book anyway.

Quaife boxes do seem a bit hit and miss. A few big Escorts use the RWD one (60g?), but the FWD stuff often seems to have a bad reputation.

You might need a graphics change before the logbook. The MSA might be funny about the "Mild Seven" logo as it's a tobacco brand?

Sure I read somewhere that the replacement for the M140i will be 2.0 turbo 4WD

Nice colour combo and sure it goes well, but the 120d looks spoil it a bit for me. Needs something to liven it up a bit. Modifications on the cards for this one?

Love it!

I made the lines when I redid part of the Escort. It's pretty easy once you've done a couple.

The way people are losing their s**t about these cars is quite funny to be honest.

I don't mind the CIvic. It's lairy, but that's kind of the point of it. It's supposed to be aggressive and look like a race car. Good on Honda for going all-out I reckon.

One for the yellow car here: https://www.cliosport.net/threads/escort-rs2000-rally-car.788631/ One for the F2 car, but it's very much on hold currently: https://www.cliosport.net/threads/escort-f2-kit-car-rebuild.788652/

Love it. One of my forum favourites. Really want a MK1 for a project.

What a strange post lol. The fact that most hot hatches are now five doors is down to simple economics. Most customers want five doors, so designing and manufacturing a three door body for the sake of a few die hards simply isn't worth the expense. VW launched a five door Golf GTI in the 80s...

MK2s did drop a bit below £20k at one point I recall, then went back up again, so it's only logical that the MK3 will do the same. The thing that goes against it is that it seems to have been made in greater numbers. However, it's an RS-badged Ford, so it will likely hold value pretty well. I...

That's a risky level of smugness on a Renault forum ?

I probably would have chosen something else with the benefit of hindsight, but s**t happens lol.

Have other failures been reported since the head gasket issues? Is this a symptom of a known issue?

Do rally cars count? Got two currently, both RS2000s. The yellow one is more basic, with standard engine, close ratio Focus box, Quaife diff, Bilsteins, Wilwoods etc etc The other is an ex-Ford Motorsport F2 car, so mountune engine, Dynamic 3-way dampers, sequential box etc. Long way off...

It's an Escort, not a Puma ?

Cheers chaps. Which models did you guys use?

Anyone got any experience of anything like this? Have just bought a cheap Vectra C as a daily/tow car and obviously it doesn't have Bluetooth or anything that fancy. I don't really want to change the factory head unit, but would like Bluetooth for my phone and, if possible, music. Has anyone...

Black badges seem the go-to mod in Megane circles. Not a massive fan myself, but I could probably live with it if it was a condition of owning this. I should imagine it's a right weapon.

Not wasting any time! Should look lovely when it's done.

But more right with the Trophy-R it seems, given the increased performance and unending love it attracts from all who sample one ?

@Tomotek did a custom gear lever in his.

Had to giggle at the negative comments. That's a proper car in a proper spec. Would ditch the ktec sun strip myself but a minor detail. The red details would 100% stay. It's part of the Trophy-R look. Given what some of the Clios on here look like, I doubt we're in a position to criticise ?

Welcome! Nice to see another rallyist on the forum! Make sure you start a thread for your car!

Lucky, lucky b*****d lol

I might be missing something, but why the modified Toyota discs?

This thread makes me angry. I need a MK1 in my life.
