Love it love it love it!!

I have always had a soft spot for the Escort RS turbo, i remember dreaming of owning a red one when i was a kid. I havnt owned one as yet though, maybe one day.
Top job though, looks like it has come straight out of the showroom

fair play there ben that's a top job done by the old school restoration.
