Right, not been on here in a while but the tro is still going well.

Im after a set of michelin slicks for a trackday soon but im considering selling her to persue my dream of a mk1 escort with a cossy lump soooo... how much do you lot think she's worth? Take a look through the journal for spec but briefly it has a tf frame and suspension setup, tf135 engine with a c6 pg1 type b box, turrets for rear dampers etc, cheers

Long time no post!

Still got the old girl, she's sat since the start of winter so I decided to buy a rover 25 and a zr160.

So as you can guess the 135 lumps coming out and the 160 in.

I'll try and get pics and post them if I remember the photobucket password

Still looking good as ever nige. Glad you didn't get rid of the tro. I reckon even if you did get a mk 2 escort and albeit rwd you'd still preferre the metty. Its taken a lot of years to get to the standard this is. Keep up the good work bud and keep her on the road.

Peace out bro, miss ya! X
