What is the cut off date for an old skool ford?

[Fiesta Steve]

Old skool stops with Live axle cars. Sorry

 

 

 

Luckily for me you don't make the rules

[faster]

Mk1 Fiesta's can just sneak in, purely because they dont have nearly as much plastic and crap in as MK2's do.

Come on if the painfully awful MK3 Escort becomes Old Skool, we might as well all give up now. Its an awful, awful car. Dont let it become old skool!

Lucky indeed eh?

 

It'd be good to hear why people think certain things don't/shouldn't qualify. i.e. I present a reasoned argument as to why the Sierra should qualify (all the while maintaining my neutral stance ) lets hear a reasoned argument as to why not.

pop=too cool for school

granada mk1= do i need to say why?

granada mk2=because its just as cool as the mk1

cortina mk1-5=the name cortina says it al

escort mk1 and 2=RWD, cool and the best

fiesta mk1= the beginning of a new era but the cassic styling (osf for sure)

capri mk1-3=RWD, so sleek yet so simple.defo cool!

anglia=the follow on from the pop and just as cool

 

then the deaded ones people argue over

 

sierra=RWD, old as the capri but plastic. not sure on that one

escort mk3= not osf because its a bit gay and crap (but the xr3 was great!)

fiesta mk2=dumbed down, plastic, modern looks and built at the wrong time

rs200=RALLY LEGEND!

 

*awaits arguement to kick off*

Mk1 Fiesta is OldSkool because ;

 

it has metal bumpers, the option of 7" round lamps , 4 spoke wheels, x-flow engine, lack of plastic.

 

Pretty much everything you'd like to see on you rwd osf eccept the power is going through the wrong set of wheels .

Of course mate, but it shouldn't stop at chickens.

 

Do you remember the dancing flowers and coke cans???

 

Or, how about this for Old Skool Fashion, Global Hyper-Colour "T" & Sweat-shirts

[X-pack-Glyn]

i remember rubiks cube, thats definatly old skool!

[martymk1]

think what darren and the others class as old school are spot on

 

up to about early 80s, including mk4/5 cortina's & mk3 capris, do like a cossy, but don't think they're oldskool
