    yes great photos G !



    No nothing.

    No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

    No tackiness.

    Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

    Innit?

    @brembo & @bda

    Evening and thanks, i forget sometimes what’s around here and how much fun it is just driving. Was hoping to coax my mate out who has an identical car, to do some picks and stuff. Think he’s scared of hitting the 3k milestone so went alone ?

    is that the transfer box? Our cars are renowned for “weeping” there. Mines is worse than that and its had a warranty repair on it already (which significantly reduced the flow, but didnt fix it). Yours is hardly anything and i would just leave it.

    @Nateodog yeah i know Anthony well and he’s a great guy, altho he’s gone to BMW. But he owns some other mental cars which make up for it.. ?

    Also you have made up my mind the colour will get a chance, stands out so much it gets recognised ?

    Im also thinking of the map he done for his car, but modified for mine. Using the ecotek and mobile interface??? He really had is RS set up well. Ive got to stop calling in there tho, supposed to be earning not spending!

    @bobcat sound of the wooden bridge was mental… We have a list of places my uncle took photos of his old RS, back in the day! ?

    Since my aunty passed away, its made me more aware of time with the kids.. and creating memories. A bonus they both love the car, especially the little one who’s up every Sunday between 5:30 – 6:00 like clockwork to go out for a blast…
