It was my dad, but not in the way you'd think! His 40th birthday (and my cousins 21st) we all went to phil price rally school, and near the end of the day my dad arranged for me to have a blast in one of the mk2 escorts (i was 13 at the time) and that was it, after half an hour of sliding it round the track (the instructor/tutor that came with me said i had the best clutch control and i could hold the slide very well, and that was when i was 13!!!) i decided i wanted on. Even though i haven't actually got one yet, it won't be long, one of my friends, girlfriends, grandads friends is selling a mk rs2000 (flat front) VERY cheap because he's emigrating to New Zealand next month, and if he's still got it i'm having it.

I go upto that quarry Steve in my 90, there's a few videos on youtube of me up there, it is good fun, but it'll be replaced soon by going sideways everywhere

Welcome, but I think thats a bit ambitious. But what do I know, I'm just one of those capri boys I've seen a few 4 door's priced lower than that, that seem to be in quite good nick. But no 2 doors so far

Thanks folks!! Think i've decided to go for a Mk1, i know exactly what it's going to look like too However, it'll have to be a 4 door with my budget (unless anyone knows of a 2 door in average - good nick for about £2500??)

Thanks peeps. Lotusless - i want an escort but can't decide whether to go mk1 or mk2, i think it's just gonna be a case of which one comes up first that i like for the right money. Either way though, i've got to wait till the 90 sells, and then thats the budget i've got for an escort. Cheers Tom

Hi All, I'm tom and i bet you can't get what i'm on the look out for!?! Currently got a land rover 90, but it's for sale (unless anybody's interested in a swap ). Cheers tom
