escort looks nice, my mates got a mk 4 xr3i, to go with his mk1 and mk2 xr2's and xr4x4, alright for some.

any more details on it? ie engine spec, suspension etc. his is standard at the moment, mk2 xr2 is modified though, different carb, kent cam, head work, full ashley system etc, think it made 98bhp at the wheels last time it was on the RR, not bad especially when you consider the bottom end is all original.

yer i know .... havent fitted them yet... im waiting for spigot rings and wind deflectors then its time to start work on her.

trying to get hold a new back box.. just sent JClark a PM asking about his old twin pipe.
 
updates

Now got the new wheels on... looks alot better than the standards... plus got new rubber so now legal..

i think that the red nuts set it of nicely... the only bad bit is that the wheel centres dont fit on when the wheels ar on the car.. need to get some spacers...
