Re: Ford escort MK2 - old photos (crash repair wheelarch)

My dad worked in a ford garage, it was a mint one owner car, and he reserved it for my uncle, who treated it terribly and it ended up being thrown away as scrap! I sure hope he knows how much they're much in mint condition now! :)

Looking through some photos of my dads from the 80's
in a field, at a little classic car show in the car park, 77 RW, the first jag E-type roadster (correct me if i'm wrong :) ) sits in a completely original, unrestored state!

Re: searching for a suitable classic!

I did think of a classic golf, but insurance comapnies, when considering young drivers, actually charge more for owning cars such as golfs, old clio's etc...just because of the stereotypical owners :/ as for the BMW, i did look at the older model, E21 i think, and the insurance would be to high :( a ...

If FWD is more your thing, then ...
