MOT Fail on high emissions and on Brake Flexi-hoses (Plus a couple of other fixed faults). Fail sheet available.. Currently on SORN. Car drives fine, but read below to see what's what.

Chassis/Body.

2 Door RHD (Originally 1.3gl) in Midnight Blue.
No Sunroof
Original Strut-tops
Little rust.

Engine + Running gear:
2.0 Pinto
Stage 2 Unleaded Head (from Specialised Engines)
Kent FR22 Cam (fast road cam, not lairy - possibly overly worn..)
Twin 40 Dellorto's with Magard twin throttle cable linkage (only one throttle cable installed at the moment).
PLR 4 branch and single box exhaust.
Vernier Pulley (new!) @£90
H&H Electronic Non-vac dizzy with coil module, set up for my engine spec. (new!) @£200
RS2k Alloy Sump
RS2k 4 Speed box
Singe Peice Prop
3.89 Rear diff
I've never had the car rolling roaded as it runs pretty good, but of course the emissions are too high.
BHP? At a guess I'd say approx 140bhp at the flywheel. 0-60mph will be in the 7secs region if you are bothered about that sort of thing..

Steering/Suspension:
Rear Bilstein Shocks
-2" Lowering blocks (new!) @£20
2.8i Bilstein Struts
-2" Spings, 190lbs (new!) @£26
2.8i Callipers and Vented discs (new!) @£100
2.4 Turn to Turn quick-rack (new!) @£120
New TCA's and RS2000 'Green' TRE's (new!) @£60
Various new pollybushes throughout front end.

Interior/Exterior

RS2k Steering Wheel
Recaro "GTE" seats. Possibly from Opel Manta.
No rear seats fitted, but some can be provided but will need attention.
Lowered 2" all round.
Halogen H4 Round Headlights (new!)

Wheels/Tyres.

In total I have the following wheels. What I include will be down to price:

4 of 7x13 Compomotive CX's with un-roadworthy 205/50 Firestones.
4 of 6x13 Capri Laser 4 Spokes. 2 with almost new 185 tyres, 2 with worn but legal 185's
6 of 5?x13 Ford standard steel wheels.

I would like to keep the Compo's but will let them go for extra ££...

Bad bits:

Noise coming from cam/cam-gear/tappets. Mechanic took cam cover off and reckoned one of the lobes has flattened slightly. This is apparently making the noise and wont be helping the emissions either as basically it's not closing a valve all the way and thus letting some unburnt fuel through, leading to..

Emissions too high to pass MOT

New flexi-hose needed for N/S front and rear brakes (MOT fail)

Starter motor needs attention, doesnt always engage when trying to turn over.

Paint/Bodywork This car has had two new wings+rails and front panel. These are both still in their matt-black covering that new panels come in. Rail to Inner wing is welded but needs filling with bodyfiller/silicone or whatever and then painting
The side-strips have been removed and had the holes welded up. These need filling+smoothing properly. The whole car will need a respray from windows down unless you dont mind the rat look.
Passenger footwell has been patched up badly, repair is strong (passes MOT) but does not look neat
Rear N/S arch has been repaired, needs smoothing
Rear O/S bit just before arch has been repaired, needs smoothing+paint
Tiny bit of bubbling on bootlid.
Slight rust in spare wheel well and to rear of tub (like every Mk2)
There are a few patches underneath to the sills, and a couple of patches on the chassis rails but nothing unexpected or that needs doing as far as I'm aware.
Other bits of paintwork been touched up, or attempted to be touched up and dont look good.
I will add that the paintwork on the roof and pillars is very good with NO bubbling around front/rear windows, which is a pain to repair.

Items listed as "(new!)" have had approx 100 miles use.

I have quite a lot pics of various bits of the car available but none of the full car at the moment.. Just ask and I will email you some.

I cant break the car at the moment, I know I'd get more for it at that way but I need the space. I will consider not including various bits for a lower price though..

Any offers, questions etc. feel free. Post or PM me here, or email gomp0(at)hotmail.com

I will consider a PX, with money going either way. I am not interested in a boring family car though. I would be interested in a genuine Mk1/Mk2 RS, or an official sporty Escort (Harrier, Sport etc)...providing it's in good condition - I dont want another project. Would also consider another 'sporty/hot' car, but I dont want something covered in sh!tty spoilers/vents etc and must have decent performance (similar to my Escort or better).

Cheers, Greg.
