Had so much fun in that car, going to be gutted to see it go soon!

Dave i'd rather a Blue Wrx! I'm not a Cortina fan per se anyway. Too old for me.

The weather is becoming more and more of an issue but get some winter tyres for the Clio and keep it and get the Cortina.

 

[DaveDreads]

Haha I know you're more of an 80s onwards Ford fan,
but the thought of a tax exempt classic with cheap insurance is appealing,
plus I think a Pinto or Crossflow engine would be a good way of learning mechanics.

I also like the thought of driving a car i've help build, I guess i'll make my decision when I get up to £2k savings,
knowing me i'll have probably become obsessed with something else by then.

My mum had a fiesta si 5 door and I loved it, the seats the handling and surprisingly nippy, gave it to me as a run around at 18.

God I miss it

 

[vRS LIL]

Always loved this as a kid in the 80's

 

[Chris_200CUP]

My old Mk1 focus rs that was featured in fastford twice well i owned it, once during fightclub event and then had full 6 page feature

should never sold it in long run

 

[Gally]

Shame the stickers and the wheels weren't a better colour. Love those wheels. So purposeful. Wanted those or 2118s on the Frp.

 

[Lou]

Bit hard not to love fords coming from essex :approve:

Some of my fords over the years:

Orion si

RST track car

Our ST and me driving one at a rally experience

 

[Mork of Ork]

Great little upgrade mate. The Mk7 ZS is a stunningly good car.

Many thanks, mine is a Metal edition so it has an upgraded engine & exhaust with 134ps, heated leather & black 17" alloys.

The little extra features really finish the car off and should have been on the ZS already imho.

 

[JCC]

Pretty much any of their "fast" models they made in the 90s I love. They all look like they'd be almost scary to drive, especially tuned.

[Gally]

Tickford Capri!

 

[Bluebeard]

Dreadful!

 

[Gally]

Isn't it! Reminds me of the car from Robocop.

 

[LY04 GAV]

Well ain't been on here in a while as I've sold my clio in February and gone over to ford and been on fiestastoc but here's a couple off pics of mine

 

[DaveDreads]

Tickford Capri!

Haha I've seen a few of these around Cov, I don't know if they said Tickford on them,
but there are Capris in this city with that body kit, Bedworth is just a couple of mile away from me.

 

[nevillemaycry3]

That mk2 escort at the top of post 149 is looks mint. That colour on that body shape is so mean and purposeful.

 

[200 Alex]

My old beauty. Miss her so much
