The Ford Appreciation Thread

[Weeksy]

Last one I ever post of it.... On it's nos shark tooth wheels pre brake conversion - on the cream shag pile!

580 bhp was a little too much for 205 50 15s and 283mm front discs!

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

I want one just to do axle tramping

 

[DaveDreads]

I'd much rather work on an old Sierra than that f*cking DCi.

I thought it was amusing when someone sent me the screenshot!! Loads of idiots on there. Could have been worse...I could own a limited edition corsa and had my car posted up! Haha

Everyone on SS loves a Limited edition corsa

Nothing been in here for while, time to rectify that.

 

[Adam93]

My mate's newly acquired MK1 RS. It's a beauty.

 

[Stefan.]

Lovely rs - bar the huge exhaust!

 

[Gally]

f**king timless classic shape.

 

[Bluebeard]

Got clean??

I really really want this. (Apart from the stupid bonnet)

 

[DaveDreads]

Every time I see one, I feel like punching myself in the head over the one I gave away for £80 quid.

Hindsight's a wonderful thing dave! We've all done it I think.

Don't know if I mentioned it before, but my Father in law scrapped a genuine Lotus Cortina for £30 back in the day because it needed too much work to get it going again.
He nearly shat in his pants when I showed him rotten barn finds on eBay fetching £20k+! lol

 

[DaveDreads]

GUTTED!!! I feel slightly better now. lol

 

[Gally]

Not sure how well this pic will come out but it's for sale at £900...

 

[DaveDreads]

That's pretty cool, is it made of rot?

 

[Ex-User (60778)]

A couple of photos I took at Silverstone Classic!

That work? I could look at it if you were wanting it Dan.

 

[DaveDreads]

That looks pretty good tbf, taxed & mot'd too.

 

[Gally]

Long way from Brizzle!

 

[DaveDreads]

F*cking long way from anywhere, unless you live in Winterfell.

 

[Bluebeard]

And it's an i. I want a carb one (or a carb escort) as my mate has a race kit for one he said he'd fit FOC. (Weber, big cam etc)

 

[Stu.]

My Gran had a red orion ghia, with what i think was the x-pack kit. Loved it when i was young! Would be a great car to have now

 

[Stu.]

Few pics from the ford day at crail at the weekend aswell.

Cossie fiesta van!

 

[Djw John]

Kev have you seen the boy locally that's using a white mk2 as a daily? Full cage, massive arches, covered in dirt-awesome!

Cossie KA



Mean looking FRP

Nothing been in here for while, time to rectify that.

I believe the new series of "For the love of cars" is featuring a mk1 transit.

 

[welshname]

When's that supposed to start?

 

[Jekyll]

Filming has started and I think it will be Jan next year.

 

[Ray Gin]

Have to say, if I wasn't into driving fast and performance cars, I would seriously consider a new Ford Ka. In red, grand prix spec!

I think Ford have missed a trick by not putting the 125bhp 1.0 ecoboost from the Fiesta ZS into the Ka with a subtle body kit, sporty seats and making it a new SportKa.

 

[Gally]

Agreed. A KA ST is a must!
