Now that is a lot of pictures of a carpark!! I would be up for this but my car is now on Sorn??? But then again, a new one could be in the gang by then I suppose??? Put me down as a yes if I have a car.

SOme different NZ options...

Somebody stop me before I start to cry...

Always liked this shot...

My old RS2 had 13" rims and they also look good, just limited for brake options... CheeRS

15" Gp4 ML, 8" rear and 7" front... I actually have a brand new spare set of these wheels with tyres in my shed. Dunno if I should keep em or move them on?? CheeRS

May as well have my tuppence worth... That will be a Yes then!! CheeRS

Suppose its only fair I post a few more snaps up... And a few with little old me... I miss NZ me!! CheeRS Dave...

Going to make some progress on the Mk2 over the next few months, hopefully be on the road and ready for spring!! A few more pics before the final run for the finish... Wish me luck!!! CheeRS

Been away for a while so thanks to all the folks that wrote the comments above, sorry for my delayed reaction! Mk1 all tucked up for winter now, I suppose I had better wash it this weekend though??? CheeRS

Belive it or not mate, I am far from happy with the cars finish. Going to have a good old drive about this year and look at repainting the whle car from scratch again. There is also rust in the inner corner of the drivers door, so this is getting chopped right out rathe rthan tyring to dig it and fill it. So lots of fun in the sun for me this season!

Will be doing the Lakes Tour and Cumbria show this coming weekend if anyone is along for the ride??

I dont have a spare Mk1 for P/X but I do have some spare cash to add to your collection if you are interested?? CheeRS Dave...

If this is the same car that recently sold from a certain website its also a good price I reckon! Still a top car and definately got me looking now...

Also, what size are those wheels and tyres? They sit real nice in the arches and suit the car to a tee! Are you using spacers at all? CheeRS

How easy is it to fit the quater bumpers??

I like that a lot! Engine looks like it belongs in there. You have got me thinking now....

By the way, these pics above were before the bigger back brakes were added. It was years ago and I was waiting for HiSpec to get their calipers approved. Gave up in the end and just settled for Cosworth rear calipers. Will probably change them one day?

Looks much better in Black and is very, very rare. Try find another one...?? All ready for a wash on Friday, then Lakes tour here we come.... CheeRS Dave...

Work in progress... Was an original factory black RS1600 from day one but had been restored in the past prior to me owning, but they painted it white?

Brakes are same at both ends actually, I think its just the angle of the shot? I will dig some more snaps out later. I will be going to plenty of shows this year yes. I did a few last year and have made one or teo apperances over the past few years actually. First run out is going to be the lakes tour next weekend. See you all there for some thrashing fun.... CheeRS

Olympic Blue, and Cheers!!

Thanks again folks. Makes the many thousands of pounds and years to complete all worth while! Gilli, bene to your place a few times mate. Have "family" that live in Ratoath. Cheers dave...

My best to date was a 120 mile helicopter to Aberdeen, and collected hire car, 300 mile drive to home to collect my Mrs, then about 300 more to Mrgate to collect an RS2. Then drove the 300 mile back home in the Mk1. all in a days work! Have also travelled from Shetland to North London to buy my Mk1, then down to East London from there to buy a Mk2 which I thn drove back home Teeside. Again all in the same day. I will be doing about 300 miles today, just to get home. get off your arse!

Cheers chaps! Vista, you would be surprised mate. Once people find out I am an Escort man they seem to come and find me from all corners just to talk about the old days! Got to love Escorts!
