Wink My Ford fair pics... 2007

I know its the wrong site...
But it was a great show, so thought I'd post the pics I took from the day...
Anyway... heres a few of the pics I took... well, all of them...

Not been a Ford Fair show since I got rid of my MK3 Orion back in 2003...
But with recently buying a MK2 Orion as a new project... ( hopefully built for 2008 show season ) Thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to start going the shows again...
What a show it was... the weather was great... there was some quality cars on show...
A brill day had out by all...
My job for today is to clean all the flys off the front off the misses A3... lol, and post my pics up...
All my pics were took from my phone so there not brill...

The transport to get to and from... in total around 280 mile round trip, did debate taking the Scooby, but decided against it...





My mate's little'n... wearing a hat brought for £1 quid... Abit big, but helped keep the sun off her...
Everyone else is suffering from thier sun burn, me included... lol



The Fords now...





















This RED Escort Cossie looked awesome on 18inch Escort Cossie rep wheels





The details just incase anyone needed them...



My mate in his wheres walley top ( I know its the wrong colour )... sorry but he does manage to appear in a few pics...



Love this S1RST



Nice and slammed MK2 Fez...



MK5 Cortina... very tidy, my dad used to own one that looked the same as







Another awesome looking Escort Cossie...





COSSIE powered BMW...





Nice 3 door Cossie...









Nice S2RST on Escort Cossie rims... really suited it... nicely dropped too...









Seen this MK4 Escort somewhere before???





A Galaxy... took this pic for a mate... he's just got a new one for just short of £20K... he should stop having kids imo...



Anyone else take to much food with them???
Between me and the misses, we took 12 pies, 6 bags of chrisps... and aload of pop...
I started eating as soon as I got through the gate, I thought the more I could eat, the less I'd have to carry... lol
5 pies later... errrrrrrrrrrr, not a good idea... Ended up throwing aload away...
I aint fat by the way... well, not yet anyway...
Aged 25, just over 6ft and weigh 12st 8...
Just thought I'd add this while waiting for the pics to upload... lol

Back to the pics...







Mondeo estate on 'phat' rims...

































New megane...



MK5 Cossie kitted Cab...











I stopped eating the pies when I saw this... hmmmmmmmmmmm, road kill!!!



The top half of the engine...











...











Nice MK3...





















Getting bored of copying and pasting now... must go on...









Bling bling Cossie engine bay.... Gold...











Very nice job... :roll:


This Fez stood out... Abit bright...























Think this one had been off in the gravel on track...???





Awesome looking 3dr... Pic turned out really good...



Nice MK2 orion



























MK1 XR2...









Mint Series 2...





















[









Sorry... but I thought... WTF when I saw this guy... D: D: D:









Nice wheels on the MK3 cab













Nicely installed screens... quality job done...









Was nice to see this well know MK3 in the flesh, although alittle on the dusty side towards the end of the day...























And a Focus RS on the move shot... but it was to fast for the 150bhp powered A3... Things would have been alot different if I'd been in the Scooby... lol



Thats your lot...

Was a great day... D:

Excellent pictures

The Escort and 3 door Cossie still look the Dogs Bollox.

Just goes to show how good Ford once was at producing cars that people wanted to buy Fiesta XR, RS. Escort XR, RS, Cosworth, Sierra XR, Cosworth.

Shame the only sporty car they do it the Focus ST.

Ford need a new Fiesta RS, Focus RS 4x4, Mondeo RS 4x4.
Get Fast Ford back in peoples minds. I've always been, and always will be a fast Ford man.

Lol, get your coat... To the Orion register we go...

I've picked up a late registered H-reg Orion... plan to fit a full S2 kit to it, 90's spec front bumper, Cossie spoiler... Painted in Moonstone blue... dunno what wheels yet... But plan a 2 litre zetec turbo with around 300bhp...
Its gonna be my weekend toy, gonna keep the look Ford, all genuine parts/ fit, no chav bits, just nice and clean...... its to help replace the Sti Type R...
Hopefully ready for next years show season...
Its a Ford thing... lol

Can't be denied that Ford have made some top cars in their time... let's hope they sort themselves out with the next RS

But you'd expect the Cossies to be nice, clean and well sorted.

Give me one of those Mk1 or Mk2 Escorts any day

What I found rather ironic, while watching one track session there was a Mitsi Evo VIII (IIRC) owning everything by about 15 seconds.. Seems a bit shameful for that to happen on a ford day.

Me too, didn't see the heading at first and was thinking "they look big, must be because it's so low"

He's gonna sell a few sets of those surely! If I had an escos they'd be on my wish list! I love the style of the original escos wheels but they are a bit small at 16".
