    We needed to see more Adam - no point having a car like this without ragging the arse out of it properly for us to enjoy. One of my fav cars ever - always wanted a mk2 with circa 500bhp and a similar set up to this for track days, wouldn't have this colour but doesnt make me any less envious watching it

    Hi Adam, very nice car & very nice preparation. But personally do not like any YB turbos in Escorts...it has to be n/a first, so BDG on fuel injection or Millington Diamond with roller barrel throttle... Just check out 'Frank Kelly Rallying' for the ultimate spec MK2 & proper ragging the arse out of it...nice👍.

    If you don't fancy knitting an old Escort shell back together with MIG wire, MST motorsports now offer new Mk1s & Mk2s, but they aren't allowed to call them Escorts.
    Need deep pockets though, as a decent spec car starts at about £70k.

    My first MKII was a 1.3GL, 4 door in Gold. Ended it's life the same as most, in Wales, in a lane, over a humpback bridge, up a bank, through a hedge, into a field. Tried sledging the inner wings and pulling it out with ropes, too far gone. Scrap it, strip the parts, onto the next!
    You can have a lot of fun in one of these without going so far as to make it too loud and impractical to enjoy for more than 10 mins at a time, those smiles quickly turn to headaches and sore bones unless you're on a smooth as glass track with ear plugs and a lid, must be what he bought that for, not for the streets.

      Around 600 - 650bhp.
      Absolutely terrifying.
      It's brilliant fun.
