The best looking escort Ive seen is a MKI slammered on its guts, with forrest arches and a huge set of Minilites. But as a standard car Id have to say Mk1 Twin cam

I think he is talking about the grill, some people call it a dog bone grill. I just call it the Mk1 grill.

Yeah, I'm not exactly a huge fan of the Mk III Escorts... The Mk 5 Cosworth versions are pretty sweet tho, IMO

Mine wasn't listed either... 98-01 ZX2, 2.0 ltr DOHC! BTW, it's an American model.

grey_esp · 11-15-2004, 21:34

The mk1 2dr I would have to say is my favourite overall. But every day I stare and dream at this Zakspeed model on my wall and on my work computer. With a n/a Cosworth, twin 50's and 280hp, major aerodynamic mods and sold recently in the UK for 20,000pounds....mmmmmm

Oh and my girlfriend just bought a MK1 2dr.....convertible! haha
