Escort convertible runabout

[Palma 8]

Decided to get a wee runabout to save on the mileage and fuel on the Evo.
Its a 1.8 Ghia. Had the car in to Evans Halshaw Ford dealer and checked by a master tech. Only faults picked up with the car were an offside front drop link and a nearside outer CV boot! Car is absolutely solid! No welding been done and none required! Scorpion stainless exhaust,17 inch wheels (not my taste and will be getting changed).

Na it's not bad at all, shame you got it at the end of summer but a great runner they just keep going, looks tidy too

Summer! I must have blinked and missed it!!! :razz:
Looked at an RS2000 4x4 on an N reg but it was a complete shed. Full of rust,rot and had electrical problems. Gave it a wide berth!
Not a patch on ma wee convertible

Oh did I say summer I meant not freezing or rain lol

Different alloys fitted now. Brightens the car up and makes it look fresher I think.
