Pillock Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Y-plate so first model year, yet no dangly mirrors? Were they a povvo-only feature a la black grille, or did they just replace them with boring old mirrors very early on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 As far as I know dangly mirrors were on the low specs (Base, L) and once you got to GL and upwards you were afforded proper ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Bo11ox Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 That marina is great! Sadly theyve hoiked the engine out and flogged it. Could be the perfect candidate for my dream marina though - mini MPI injected A-series plus dolomite O/D box. 50MW halogen headlamps too. OUT OF THE WAY LUZRZ, MARINA REPMOBILE COMIN' THROUGH!

Legally and to hide his embarrassment.[/quote] Not sure about that, as he's wearing a seatbelt. There's always been some debate about this helmet/seatbelt thing, seems to be a legal grey area. I remember asking a cop about this years ago, and he admitted he wasn't sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 1980 Ford Escort 1.3 Hey this is ace, look at the valance! 1980 Ford Escort 1.3L A very different 1980 Escort, this is exactly how a MK2 Escort should look - steelies, square lamps, spartan interior and basic colour. I proper love them like this and would be absolutely delighted to own one. However since it's a 2-door I would have to commit some sort of mass fraud to afford the initial purchase price.

pogweasel Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 ...and sadly you just know the Mk2 will shortly have the 'RS-4-spoke-2.1-pinto-capri-struts-'oldskoolford'-windscreen-sticker-flabby-arsed-braying-stella-guzzling-knobhead' treatment.

However it's a bloody automatic, which means it has the larger transmission tunnel so sought after by the rally boys. I put the likelihood of this one retaining its current appearance into 2010 at about 4.3%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
