Very different from the MK2 mate apart from being able to get the back end out lol.

Can't wait to see/hear this.

Careful, Jason is after your engine for his E36.

good choice in car to replace the MK2 escort

has the escort gone to a good home?

A fantastic choice

It will be interesting to hear back from you regarding a real world review of living with a C5. I've driven a few C4's and a C3 but they've never appealed to me in the way that a classic Camaro or Mustang do. A C5 is a different prospect

It had to be something very special to replace the Mk2 and that certainly is nice!

cheers guys, the escort went to a good home, guy from wales took it just to use on the road and travel to shows.
looking forward to some dry roads so i can see how the vette performs, with the big rims on the back it feels pretty lively so far!
having electrical problems already (crap aftermarket wiring) but should have them sorted soon, then i'll get it on the rollers and see what it's got, should be around 375bhp/350lb with the stainless decats :-)
