@Crispin_Glover the Mk2 Escort is amazing, as I had one (not a top spec one like that) as my first car I'll always have a soft spot for them. Eventually sold it for £50 to some farmers who banger raced it to death. sob . My old man used to know Jan Churchill who ran the rally school in Wales whose stock tool of choice for decades has been Mk2 Escorts. Churchill himself used to rally Porsche 911's back in the day too. CSB.
And as we on the subject of drool-worthy rally spec cars, I did a proper 'holy fuck!' when I saw this today, surrounded by modern euro-wagons it was a beacon of awesomeness for miles around.
And @johnnettles2 I wondered how you were getting on with yours when I passed this stunner today.
And I know he's more into 500's but for @jonny a cool old 127 with Arbarth wheels, even looks cool in a colour scheme best described as 'it fell out the back of a cow'.
