Back to the Sport scene after owning a 172 Cup a few years ago. I only bought the 172 Sport 03 plate from a mate a few months ago and the timing belt has snapped. Was driving it at the time (not fast) and it just slowed down from 40, 30, 20, 10, 0. Had to get it trailered home and my brother in...
Right having a mare of a few days and now this has just happened
Haven't used my Cup for a week or so and the battery was flat, its outside my brother-in-laws house so he got jump leads on it and turned it over for 20 mins or so, then he decided to close the doors and the doors have locked...
I wonder if anyone can help, I'm trading in my 172 Cup next Friday but my bloody back box has fell off, the car needs to be in a running condition so I need to source a cheap 2nd back box just to trade it in.
I really don't want to buy a new one from the stealers as its just a waste of money...
This is one of the best MK1 Escorts in the country at the moment, an absolute beast ! Wish it was mine, spec is as follows:
The car now has a 5speed quaife sequential box,gt30 internal gate turbo,ported head bd16+ cams mount tune type inlet manifold 1000cc injectors completely new fuel...
I know its probably a repost but now that 28 Days Later site has gone I thought it would be good to give this site the heads up, some great new photos on there as well ;)

Blue 172 Cup or Monaco Blue 182 with carbon fibre bonnet, I couldn't tell as I was overtaking and you were coming down the hill - didn't have chance to see a cliosport sticker !
Oh yeah had black or anthracite turinis as well - very nice
Car looked smoking !
Anyones ?
Anyone have any recommendations on where to go and the rough cost ?? Prefer a Renault specialist than Renault themselves (obviously :rasp: ) - I live in Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales and would prefer someone in roughly the same area to do the work.
Any thoughts / recommendations appreciated -...
Probably such a stupid question, but just wondered anyway - I'm a member, got a sticker, haven't stuck it on yet (small internal), but why stick it on the driver side rear window ? Or in rear right window - surely if your overtaking it should be in the passenger side rear window ? So the...
Quite a few within the space of half an hour !
6.00 - JJB Sports Cyfarthfa Retail Park - Nice black MK2 16V with Ktec grill and bodykit, very small cliosport.net sticker on back window - it was parked next to my 172 Cup when I came out of the gym !
6.30 - Asda - Silver 182 (no sticker), and...
Does anybody know how many made in the UK ?
Also approximately how many are still in one piece ?!?
Had mine two months and have only ever seen one other on the road...
Spotted yesterday parked in Glebeland Street in Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales - both looked good - liked the different alloys on the Cup. I passed in my own Cup ! Do they belong to anyone on here ?
