Shw mae chaps.
Just returning to my roots after a 15 year stay in Kent.
Live close to Newcastle Emlyn and working in Carms/Pembs.
No interesting cars on the drive at the moment but after I've swallowed the cost of moving and done a few things to the house I'll be seeing what finances will stretch to.

ZOLLAR said: Welcome cap'n Zep Thanks Mr Z. Meant to remind you about the Xmas rally stages at Pembrey by the way, but puking kids meant that I wasn't sure I'd be there myself until that morning. Bloody cold but many Mk2 Escorts at varying degrees of sidewaysiness made up for that.

Bloody cold but many Mk2 Escorts at varying degrees of sidewaysiness made up for that. last time I was at Pembrey (last years xmas stages) I had the squits and had to visit the loo every 5 mins or risk pooping myself  Not as bad as one of my mates driving his Mk 1. Sucked a retainer off the air box into the head and bent valves, cracked the head, killed a piston. New Pinto pleeeeease.

Cefn Saeson, same year as your brother. Your brother will know who I am if you mention my car history, here though it's cloak & dagger stuff, you never know who's lurking!

Yeah they're a good car...has caught a LOT of more expensive/exotic stuff out with the GT30 fitted!!!  Would your mate be Ad?  Just needed too much money spent on it to sort the rust and it really needed a good respray mate. Properly gutted as I wanted to take this one to around 650bhp over this year with further mods (Holset Super HX40/bigger cams etc)  ...would have been a bit of a beast...Super40's meant to be awesome  Will have a slightly less ambitious plan for the 9-3 and just keep it around 350 (ish) with a Hybrid TD04 and a few other bits salvaged off the 9000. Was going to re-use my 3076 and get it above 500....but will keep it nice and responsive below a ton instead.
