Hmm, wonder whose idea that owners fact box was eh?! Ben B

keep the 2-litre there's no difference at all apart from final drive and bigger drums! Ben

yes mate, give our back issues dept a call on 01732 748084. Cheers, Ben

Hi Vista, sorry to hear that mate... the March issue shouldn't be out in the shops until Thursday, making it available in Feb not Jan. It's just the way mags work mate, I hate it too! Coff - thanks for the feedback mate. The copies we get in the office are always a bit darker than the ones hitting the shelves so fingers crossed it's not as bad as I think then! Sprocket - we have in-house repro but the mag is printed by William Gibbons and Sons who have always done a good job. The repro on this months cover was spot on as I saw a proof before it went to the printers, where I just think the black ink was laid down a bit heavy that's all. Cheers, Ben

Hi mate, there have been 12 issues in total, up to date. Hope this helps, Ben

thanks to you all for your feedback, glad you liked the mag! I was a bit disappointed witha few things that pissed me off. First - is everyones front cover dark? Seems the printers may have over done things on the black ink this month and spoilt the look of the cover? Or are your covers ok? Also, the white Mk1 RS2000 feature - the tag at the top left of the pages (where we normally write, "sweet 105e" or "mental capri" etc.) - somehow my tag of "stunning RS2000" got changed back to RS Mexico 2000. This is the template we use for all feature designs, then we type into it and change it to match the car. I changed it but it got changed back between sub ed and repro, so bit pissed off there too cos people will no doubt be going, "what the hell's an RS Mexico 2000?!"! But then my missus reckons i'm just too much of a perfectionist! Ben

I think that pretty much concludes that poll then! Nighty Night! Ben PS - neither myself or morley ever thought an rs200 was old skool (as you can probably tell from our replies!)... and will never feature one in retro ford. Or Fwd Escorts!)

Looks like we'll be running the feature again then! Ben

I featured the car (and went out in it) when I was Editor of Performance Ford... it's what inspired me with my Mk2! We could run a feature on it in Retro Ford, depending on whether people want to see it again or not (and whether they want to see it with the Cossie in it or the new Volvo engine in it?!) Ben

Who said we weren't going?! Ben
