It's a great choice to be honest. The chassis of the MK3 is superb.

Eesh, can't believe they cut the doors up without having a cage fitted. Following with interest though!

Yeah definitely seen it in the past. The prices of MK5/6 Escorts seem to have got a bit mental generally to be honest though. I had loads of them when I was younger and have a real soft spot for them, but I can't believe some people think base model ones are now worth thousands. I paid £800 for...

The position of the front wheel gives away even some of the better reps. The front wheel sits slightly further forward on the Cosworth, so the front overhang is shorter. Unless you use genuine front wings and bumper (and modified lower arms to move the wheel forward), it ends up looking a bit...

Haven't watched video so not aware of the exact details, but rich people often use finance to avoid having large chunks of cash tied up in things. It can bring tax advantages, and means you have liquidity available for other investments, rather than pouring it into depreciating assets.

Building a replica that looks right is a huge job, as this proves :ROFLMAO:

Looks like a JZX90 Toyota MKII to me...I think. The number of big, RWD saloon cars Toyota used to make is genuinely mental.

Man I really want to go to Japan at some point.

The wing evokes the one on the F1 GTR, so I'm not sure it's exactly Halfords :ROFLMAO: I think it's absolutely stunning. Looks far better than the T.50 and T.33.

Isn't there a Renault/Dacia factory in Morocco? Sure someone told me there was. I love travelling to places like that. So many countries seem to keep old cars going, while the Brits have become obsessed with just financing the next thing.

If I remember rightly, the genuine cars were predominately RHD weren't they?

The fitment on that Sierra is terrible. If you're going to all the trouble of having custom split rims done, at least get the offset right :rolleyes: It did remind me how much I love a Sapphire Cosworth though. With the right wheels, that would look lovely. Ambers on grey is a perfect combo...

The split rim conversion is pretty cool. The broken-looking suspension not so much.

May not be of too much interest given the lack of an RS model, but there's a new Clio, and it's f**k ugly :ROFLMAO:

Where? There are a few things about monetisation, but clicking them just seems to send me into a loop of "help" articles that don't actually tell me how to do anything.

I'm glad your friends are doing well @jonno_c and @Pauleds, but that doesn't help me :ROFLMAO:

Perhaps it's changed now, because I've got nearly 20k hours and 2.7k subscribers in the last year!

Interesting, thanks chaps. I submitted the tax info last year and, having reviewed my account, everything looks up-to-date as far as I can see, it appears I just haven't hit the earnings threshold. This begs a question, what do you need to do to actually earn the £60 minimum? How many...

This might be one for @Tighten My Nuts but I'm after info on YouTube monetisation, as I don't fully understand how you actually achieve it. So, for a while, I was chasing the requirements to reach partner status, but I did that a while ago. However, if I go to the "Earn" section in my account...

Which means they will now spend the next 10 years restoring it :ROFLMAO:

When I sold mine (back in 2017/8), a fella came over from France and took it. Sold it for £1,300 😭 From me, he was heading north to buy a load of parts to take back with him.

Engine looks interesting! How good is the drivetrain in these? Can they take decent power?

I recall that the clubs for those cars always attracted a few oddballs. A mate of mine used to have a modified Mondeo and the clubs were full of middle-aged men who through all kinds of weird tat at their cars. The Galaxy owners were even weirder :LOL: The queues to get in and out used to be...

God that Adam C is a melt. He's as annoying as the plebs doing the revving. It's funny how much Ford Fair has changed. I went a few times in the mid '00s and you never got all the engine revving business but, once the STs came along, it turned into a right chav fest. The last time I went...

It's obviously personal preference ultimately, but you've kind of answered your own question really. It's the fact that you have to move the gear stick and push your leg down that gives you the additional involvement.

S1 LM is absolutely stunning, and far better looking than the T50 and T33. Imagine being in a position where you can commission a run of five supercars from Gordon Murray too...

I had a Klarius exhaust on my old Cup years ago. Weirdly, I had an issue where a baffle collapsed in the mid section. It used to rattle like mad. I replaced it with another one and it was fine after that.

If they were making money so he didn't need to do shady deals with John DeLorean, he'd probably have been fine with it. Not that they're making money currently of course!

Yeah very much sounds like you just left it open on this occasion. Easily done. I left my keys in the ignition overnight once, but thankfully I lived in a village in the arse end of nowhere :ROFLMAO:

Streaming is getting increasingly irritating. There are far too many services and yet, somehow, when you feel like watching a particular film, it's not on any of them. Or it's on Apple TV and to buy a digital copy is more expensive than a DVD would have been.
