that thing looks insane!
been waiting for someone to give that look a go, bubble arches with actual rims, everyone always does the 13's or 14's with SUPER fat tyres.

very nice looking car, not the same one from small ford Sunday unless he has changed a few things? as the battery sticker (blue triangle) is different also the front indicators are different. Geoff Wades car will look simular to these 2 finished I think? looks the goods either way, all very nice.

I probably would have crashed if I saw something like that on the road. That is brilliant!

No it's not the XE Beast from the SFS last year, that is tucked up in a garage and hasn't been out agian since that day. I keep trying to talk him into using it but he reckons it's not ready. I will see if I can get him to take it too SFS again next year. Marks car would never pass a road worthy over here and it is not the nicest car to drive on the road at slow speed.
I think it is a friend of John Haddens, John owns the Left hand drive MK1 BDA1600. He show me photos of it a couple of years ago.

I have a feeling this is the old 'Andrew Cavelli' EX-Classic Adelaide Mk 1 Escort....and if my memory serves me correct....I have a feeling the guy who wrote off his blue Mk 1 in the rally a few years ago now owns it....he owns an engineering company just off Greenhill Rd on Duthy street.
The rims are the give away....as I think he had these on the blue one.
Looks killer but!
