  12. Looks great! Cooled seats, and massage seats may have been an option on these, has it got a sunroof ?
  13. Its being dropped off at the weekend. I found a pic of when it first arrived on uk shores about a year or so ago. So it turns out they added sporty tat to it after it arrived in the uk to emphasise the heritage / boy racer/ motorsport aspect that makes the 2dr models that bit more expensive… make it look a bit more like@egg ‘s old one in original guise…. Im unsure- keep the tat or go original? part of me likes the late 80s chav vibe as @Burnside mentioned
  14. I somehow missed out on them - i qualified in 97 but only had my own car from about 2004.
  15. I remember in the next street another 1st car for someone. It was 2 door, in black, black bumpers, black vinyl seats, IIRC it was a 1.1. Uncle Henry’s povvo dream.
  16. Growing up there was one of these down my street. a 1.3 GL 4 door. Aged 10 you could keep your ferraris etc, what i really wanted was one of these. I absolutely loved them. Back then they were cheap first cars (around 1990) couple of hundred quid and scrap it when the mot was up. That is assuming it hadnt dissolved already, or been crashed. Then a strange thing happened. They vanished overnight and then slowly they started getting expensive. By the time i started driving they were not mega expensive, but just hard to find. My route to a mk2 escort was avoid 2 door (££££££) avoid uk RHD (££££££ plus most heavily welded or rotten) So here we have a solid LHD import 1.3GL which is being delivered next week…
