i had a brown Mk1 Fiesta

 

It was great......

 

Capri boot spoiler cut and shut onto the roof (and made to fit around the obligatory 'beesting' aerial)

 

XR3 Cloverleafs, these used to scrub the arches, but its ok, I folded the lips over with waterpump pliers and left little dents all round the arch :mrgreen: Tyres didnt scrub anymore though!!

 

Golf GTi twin tail pipe fitted over the original, and upside down in a kind of Side exit/ DTM style 8)

 

Front plate mounted over to one side

 

And Headlight eyebrows made from gaffa tape :twisted:

 

To this day, I still dont know why Max Power never featured it :lol:

Mk2 Escort 4 door 1300 popular in diamond white (hence the colour of my mk1)... she had a mexico bib spoiler and a peco backbox :mrgreen: happy days... she passed away after I took a straight line through 3 corners and come to rest in a field 4 ft below the road after I tried to keep up with a notorious modena green RS2k :oops: my balls were obviously bigger than my brain and my engine back then :lol:

capri 2.0S in starto silver that i promptly painted satin black learnt loads about cars from messing around with it i did lots of things to it rear axle swap after i fooked it clutch changes x3 engine swap x3 new rear tyres about 30 times ... lol 2.8i brakes gaz adjustable front and rear shocks

rolled the arches to fit wide slotmags stripped the interior and put a decent stereo in it

lowered it a silly amount

 

 

it was low loud and pretty damn fast for a first car loved it even though it was a shit box !

LOL - this is my first car - 1.3 pop plus - bought in diamond white for £250

 

took it for an MOT to the family garage and he said half way through " Kev take this away because if it was official I would have to condemn it"

 

No brakes, Rust everywhere, an absolute bucket of poo

 

 

 

but I loved it lol

 

went a bit mad with spray paint and ragged the arse of it everywhere....

My first car was a little blue MK1 Escort 1300, paid £500 for it 11 years ago :wink:

 

But I do have a MK1 Fezzy 1100 and a Mk3 Capri 1600 For Sale if you're interested :wink::wink::wink::lol::lol:

first car i drove after i passed my test was shared with my mum (and had been my nans) - a brown 4 door austin metro with cream interior

 

used to race round dartford one way in it anyway and although it was uncool i kinda liked it

 

first car i actually owned was a 105e anglia 1200 super but the engine was fooked so i gave it back to the guy who was selling it (and have regretted it ever since)

 

first car i properly owned was a little dirty blue fiat 126 which i loved to bits and drove into the ground

 

i do not have a cool list of previous cars at all

Posted

My 1st ever car for the feilds was a terminally rusted (dont kill me :oops: ) mk1 fiesta and fook was that thing good :lol: then I had loads of mot failures that me and my mates killed on an abandoned RAF airfield a few miles from me.

 

Then came the escorts lol, but being a rust free 1968 2 door I don't quite fancy using it as an everyday car so Im trying for a rover 216 :oops:

 

Oh yeah and confused.com quoted third party only for my 1600 escort at 4900!!!!! :? In others word 'fook off we don't want you'
