I find the rear stiff enough but the front not so, how would it affect the balance if I only did the fronts? I'll give him a call after christmas and see what he advises, other than AST's!

Can these be bought?

I'm 100% getting one. Am I right in thinking it is as easy as pie?! Is it worth getting a custom map done with air filter, decat and 97 RON fuel?

How much did his private plate cost ;)

A few of mine: Wheels, H&R's, Decat and brake upgrades.

Ah sweet, cheers mate, legend!

Dave, no lol! Feirny how you mean? I'm rubbish with all this stuff!

Cheers mate. Does this stop them being able to see my stuff?

How do I do it?

Nice one, needed some new stuff too :D

Got to be with xenons for me, but no way worth that premium, maybe £200 tops. Sure it isnt colour/other spec doing it?

Looking good! My silver 182 looks nearly as black as the 1.2, won't be getting cleaned until it is at leats 15 degrees, so will be a bit of a wait yet ;) The 182 lowered?

I love your car, I need one so badly :(

Steering wheel is awesome! Nice car mate, personally hate the exhaust, but the rest looks mint.

Good stuff, can't wait to get mine on track, spent enough on it getting ready. you're mk1 (i'm assuming here) must have a fair bit of work to be pulling on a V6?

Depends if the car in front is a 1.2 ;) Or to be fair, a williams in a straight line would get mullered by a v6, so not in the rear view! I'm going sleep before you hunt me out and kill me!!

Prefer the looks of the mk2, plus the fact they are 1/4 the price of a mk1 for something i can build up and make my own! The V6 i think is just amazing, rubbish car in many ways but on pure presence I'm inclined to disagree! 182, get it right ;) As soon as I can insure a V6 at 21 then one...

Aye, hindsight is a beautiful thing! Yeh my dad was a big ford boy, had most of the good ones! Lotus Cortina, first person in Derby to get his 3.0 Capri, escorts etc, then moved onto Jags. lol at the 1.3 rep. good stuff! still a dream of mine to own a mint mk2 'scort, plenty of time...

Theres a tow eye in the spare wheel well with the jack etc.... And there will be a hole in the front lower grille to screw it in.....

I'll probably get a few infraction points, but hey worth it for a good conversation! I've never driven an old school escort, can't wait to though! Tempted by a 2.8 Capri as a toy though, bit of weld in the diff and happy days! Personally prefer the mk2 looks, but what makes the mk1 better...

I understand, he had an RS2000 too, and a mk1 1.3! Even so, to be fair the mk2 is still insane, I've got a mate with a mk2 shell, fully caged with a 20v 4age Corolla engine in, madness! KwikFit are 'fitters' not mechanics, although i'm sure you knew that. Sounds like you know your stuff...

My Dad had a mk2, full roll cage, amazing machine! I expected some respect just for loving cool cars lol! Turns out my opinion on cool+old cars is wrong!

I am a fuckwit who cant handle a proper car...i would choose a mint Mk2 Mexico over a brand spanking Focus RS. Regardless of speed (i have no experience of either) old wins everytime!

Thats sweet! My Cousin/Uncles business did all of the pattern work for the Ginetta Cup racers - random fact! Good pics, can't wait to get on track!

I've got a yozza decat on my std system i think, sounds slightly meatier but nowhere near loud. You wouldn't notice the difference if you didnt know about it though.

Michelin Pilot Exalto 2 205/45/16 82V are the tyres we want mate. Normally £100-£110 I think.

^ Snap.

lol, i'm hoping this is a joke from the other thread?!

I think it is worth the money, awesome colour, stupidly low miles and the advert wording 'shows' the car is well looked after. Lol at Cat, i want to say the same thing, when I hit 21 with 4ncb my drive will be filled with one of these, 100%

Think you're autotrader price is wrong, I'll give you £4.10 ;)
