Cheers for all the comments lads, it is by far the best and most enjoyable Ford i've owned to date but it's bloody hard having to run it in so i've been out around the lake district as the roads are perfect for putting correct loads on the engine, so far it's clocked up 210 so another 300 to go before the oil filter change then another 500 before Motorsport Development :devil:

The moment the spec is:

Complete rebuilt engine all new internals
Reconditioned head with new cams etc
New Clutch

And a few other bits :bonkers:

turboboy67 :Thats a better one :wink:


Bloody hell mate your on the button there, the guy was spot on and had been in the RS circle for over 30 years and this was his 82nd - he's moving on to another mkII escort YB

Few more phone pictures (lent out my digicam):

Looks stunning mate, really happy for you :D

Those plates are going to attract some unwanted attention though,
Loving the RS500 lower front spoiler, I personally would have dark wheels on,
but we know how much opinions vary on wheels :Q :Q

You got to bring it to some shows in the summer.....


thats of course if you still have it then :bonkers: :lol: :P

Lovely looking car Chris. You've had some fine Fords on that drive over the last couple of years :) Is the engine in all-standard trim then? Looks a corker! Mileage?

The mileage is 106k but this is as good or if not better than some pre 60k cars, no rust anywhere.

Engine block is fresh 200 miles and standard apart from Grp A head gasket and a few treats
