Toby Posted January 15, 2008 Report Posted January 15, 2008 Only just seen this thread-not enough mk1's in mags,a nice turbo'd one in last months cf and a clean xr in this months but that's it ,mine has probably cost the same as building a mk1/2 escort but they're alot cheaper to buy A bit off topic sorry but although this car looks the absolute dogs danglies - can you get away with putting wheels with that much offset on a FWD?
H.P.E harry Posted January 15, 2008 Report Posted January 15, 2008 I must admit that an escort/cortina/anglia/100e etc would turn my head more than a fiesta would on the street but i do love them still. Wouldn't mind one myself but i would convert it to rwd, perhaps that could be my next project.
mk2_escort_chick Posted January 15, 2008 Report Posted January 15, 2008 I want that car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mk2_escort_chick Posted January 15, 2008 Report Posted January 15, 2008 As a fezzy pop girly, I must admit that I'd like to see more fezza's, but Retro Ford will never feature one (I doubt they would even feature a rwd one!) Unlike CF, RF won't change with the times. Which in fairness is up to them. They have set cars that they will and wont feature. With Cf however I guarantee in a few yrs mk2 fezzy will be featured. This is up to the individual magazines. Performance Ford (RF's sis mag) will and have featured mk1 fezzy's. I just cant wait to get my jelly zetec'd and in a mag She's not going to be no show car, but something fun that I can use everyday... oh and annoy some rude boys in the local asda/halfrauds car parks

smiffy Posted January 15, 2008 Report Posted January 15, 2008 Maybe if ben morley saw this thread he might change his mind about featuring a few mk1's
harris horse power Posted January 15, 2008 Report Posted January 15, 2008 he will if we protest by not buying the mag untill they do! come on people
over_head_cam Posted January 15, 2008 Report Posted January 15, 2008 Thing is, if they start to get more popular, like the escorts, then the prices will go up
beedz Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 already happening sadly i can't believe how much the fezza stuff is shooting up on ebay these days! on the RF not featuring fezzas point, in all fairness it's their choice to do that - but precisely why i buy CF instead. i love most of the OSFs, i've got a soft spot for the fezzas, but personally it is interesting to see a good wide range in the mag - which for my money CF does a better job
Durham Fiesta Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 glad to see we're not getting as much of the "its because they are fwd , so they are shit" attitude. When you go to meets there are loads of mk1/2 escorts all going with a similar look, but fiesta styling etc seems to have a lot more variation. I think its down to the people that have the fiesta's don't have as much money to throw at their cars as the 40+ blokes that build a 20k escort, so they are a bit more creative and end up producing very individual cars.
mk1super Posted January 18, 2008 Author Report Posted January 18, 2008 Go on the fiesta xr2s rock bloody expensive to insure though as a first time driver
smiffy Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 Just had a pm from gareth of classic ford fame and he wants to feature my mk1,so i'd better pull my finger out and get it done-
