marshy Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 What's up Evo? I know I haven't been round much lately, I've had a lot on my plate.. But just thought I'd update the world of Evo what's going on..Firstly I no longer own an escort.. The Rs has had a fair bit of cash out of me over the past few months.. And still kept throwing problems at me so after a feul pump failure while taking my son to a football course.. Enough was enough.So the escorts gone.. It's replacement however is this...url="http://s27.photobucket.com/user/marshy61278/media/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps99a77b4d.jpg.html"]http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps99a77b4d.jpg[/url]http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsa6980c61.jpgAn o6 plate st3 84k 2 previous owners 12 mths mot..

mutley Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 great car.. i had one for some time.. only thing its the very common faults of alternator failure and oil diaphragm failure are both very expensive to replace.. and dont do too many standing starts as the clutch just about handles the standard power :o/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidrick Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 How have you found it after living with it for a few weeks now? I hear they respond well to chipping (or the switchable map boxes that folk use now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshy Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Not bad tbh.. I don't think I'm gonna do much engine modification as it puts out enough to keep me happy lol..I've got no complaints so far.. I did get some rs bonnet vents fitted the other week ( pic to follow) but that's about it.. I'm gonna wait till after xmas to get a exhaust n a cais..
