Thought I'd post a pic of my first Escort (GUB 747K). It started as a base 1100l but was transformed into a nice Mexico replica over a few years. Swapped it in 1997 for a Talbot Sunbeam ti. Last time I saw it was last year on ebay - went for a couple of grand I think, but was certainly not in the condition it was back then.
One of my fondest memories was on the A5 heading to the Sporting Escort National Day at Stanford Hall - probably about 1995 ish, when Roger Clark drove past us in a Pug 306!
Me and my mate immediatley recognised him. He slowed down as he came past, gave us a nod and then sped back up. We simply couldn't believe it. How's that for a claim to fame!
Anyway here's the pic.
