fRoG Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 The first car I had my dad got me. It was a red 1.3 mk5b Escort. It only cost £300 but then every other week something went wrong with it. heater matrix, radiator, wheel bearing, exhaust, alternator to name but a few but the big problem was when it caught fire. Someone had done a right bodge job with the wiring It fused the ignition together so when I took the key out the engine didnt turn off.... great. Oh well that went to the big car park in the sky. Sadly I have no pictures of it. I only owned it for 5 months. After that I got a 1.9 TD 306. I loved this car! http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/1613/pughispp9.jpg I had it for about a year but then for some reason I got a BMW 316 Compact (I know don't say it) http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/5347/bmwhisuh0.jpg Then I sold the BMW as I became a taxi driver. I was offered a 51 reg Citreon C5 for £1000 and it was already registered as a taxi. I would not of normaly gone for this car but I couldnt argue with the price. This was another car that went wrong every 5 minutes, I had this about 4 months until I got my Mondeo 2.0 TDCI Zetec Nav (The 130 BHP model) I loved this car, I could sit on the motorway in 6th gear doing 53mpg, nice! http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/609/monhisjx5.jpg I sold it a few weeks back and since then it has been written off. I got my Series 2 ERST while I still had my Mondeo a couple of years ago. This is my pride and joy! http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/8711/escorthis1cc8.jpg I also just a few weeks back got my Escort Gti http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/5968/gti1xw3.jpg I really want to get a Civic type R next but I doubt that is going to happen anytime soon. One day I would love to own and Escos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
