i will be at the ford fair.
during the week end i put a deposit on a fully restored mk 1 rs 2000 in olympic blue with multi linked rear end it was slightly more (alot more) than my £1000 budget but who cares you only live once..


S600BYY

 

Dont talk to me about multi link rear ends
it's taking me ages to finish mine off plus doing all my perky work as well

Sorry to but in, I just had alook at your website and notice you had a Magnex with decat pipe! What do you think of it, as i'm looking to buy the same system soon for my 95 WRX?

Great idea for a toy mk1 Escort! I drove a mk2 at the Silverstone Rally School about a year ago - more sideways than straight, fantastic and effortless to powerslide!

The Magnex sounds the dogs b------S got it from Road Runners in Notingham the cheapest i could find any where at the time
well worth the money also round pipe looks better than oval or twin dtm

Bloody Expensive Toy

I think it made the car a bit more responsive to drive

My Escort is a bit quicker than a Rally school escort!

But cost me a lot more to run without any pupils to pay for it !

Hux

 

Thanks!

Better get one fitted sharpish then!

James

 

iv'e just picked up my new toy and i can say WHAT A GAS however twin webbers are very thirsty carbs indeed + tiny tank mean i'm probably going to get very friendly with local filling station
such is life,at least i can drive there side ways

S600BYY

 

Hi S600BYY glad to see that you have got your
toy now.
If you have got a small tank you should treat yourself to a shaped alloy tank in the boot from Peter Lloyd Ralling looks the dogs dangles and not to bad on price to £139.00 inc filler neck.
Are we going to see some pics next! and you will have to let me no the spec of your Escort

S600BYY - any chance or reposting that pic - I use to have a 2 door Mk1 (1100cc's of pure power) as my first car (and converted to a Mexico lookalike by fitting the reverse rim steels and cutting the front bumper in half!) - but I've always thought about getting a proper Mexico or RS2000 as a toy.

 

stick a big V8 in it
