But his co-driver in the first video is VERY cute..unlike anyone I ever had sat in the passenger seat! (she's also VERY brave and has a strong stomach)
Amazing also to see what engines can be shoehorned into a Mk2 Escort nowadays - big difference from the 70's!

There's a guy that works at a garage by me that has a beautiful baby blue MKI Mexico with a 500bhp Cosworth YBD and full 4x4 Sapphire Cosworth running gear.It was a labour of love over 10 years and looks like a factory job wherever you look and the workmanship is second to none.
TRG-22, yes it had a serious effect - I think it was Henri Toivenen and his navigator getting killed when his Lancia crashd out that finally nailed it.
