I'm leaving it with Steve Taylor,he said it's ok just to leave it with him and there's nothing being left on it i want.Your right it did belong to that fella i bought it from him a couple of years ago...... Hi Danny, just thought i would pop on here and see if you were doing anything with the 2.3. Glad to see she is being put to good use, can't wait to see the pic of the mk4 when it is done! I do miss that car but i think your mk4 is well worth stripping it :thumbup: Simon

the 400lbs would probably be fine, they are always tested to alot more than the stated weight.

Are the spotlight brakets genuine ford? cheers

I think the one above deserves to be on the Barryboy website! Why would someone do that to a car?! Haha, worth it for the comedy value though i suppose!

Doesn't look to bad, will look alot better with all the skirts taken off it! Has it got something wrapped around the rear exhaust box or is that just a aftermaket box? Looks good!

Yup count me in i'll have a a few!

If you take the gaiter of the stick so you can actually see the gear stick through the floor where it joins the gearbox, you should see 3 bolts undo them and the gearstick should lift out. I can't say i noticed to much difference in the positioning on mine though, is yours in a mk5? All i did notice was the stick was longer.

Great! You'll be pleased to know that the pioneer cd player is still in it! Works great thanks! Yeah i think you are right about the rs alloys definately like them alot more than the standard ghia set. I think maybe in a few months when the weather becomes a bit nicer i might replace the valence and the panel damaged in the crash. Yeah i welded up the inner cills for the mot last year. it had also gone around the rear of the outer cills but not too badly, car is still on the original cills. I would love to keep it but its a money thing! I'll see how things go!

Hello there, just wondering are you the guy i bought it off in essex? I bought it from ebay about a year and a half ago now. Still got the car, just wondering what to do with it now! She does look very very nice in those pics! unfortunately you probably heard about the accident, just figuring out if i should keep it and do the repairs or sell it on as is! Would love to know some history on it!

Nice car indeed! Really REALLY like the wheels!

Ah that'll be nice for some winter fun! Noitced the auction said it had some spares with it.... if its got a pair of good front calipers i am interested! If not anyone on here got some? Cheers!

Guess who forgot the bloody camera! Next time i will remember it! But a nice drive was had by all! I am thinking about keeping the cortina now......

Haha, well if anyone else wants to join me in their cortina drive, I will be stoping at the "decoy tavern" near Fritton Lake (Fritton Woods) it would be great to see some other guys down there! I will probably be there around 12:30 - 1:00 pm if anyone fancys a drive! Simon!

haha! well hopefully it will all be good! yeah i have just in from the pub too so it should be a interesting ride tomorow! Await the pics!

After a few drinks tonight, i have agreed to take a few friends out for a drive in the cortina! I think it would be a great idea to take a few pictures on the way so i thought i would start this post. So tomorrow the mk5 will have tank of fuel and will take a trip around the norfolk lanes! I shall hopefully post some pics from along the way. Take care!
