ExAreSix TRAITOR Member 1,063 Member For: 22y 2m 10d Gender: Male Location: Townsville, NQ Posted 17/12/02 12:00 PM Share Posted 17/12/02 12:00 PM Upgrading from a '79 RS2000 Escort.Looking forward to the Aircon, as the 'esky' is more like a 'toaster' up here in Townsville.Gearbox/driveline is clunking a bit. Be good to get away from that noise I'll obviously notice a huge leap in power and straight line speed. Refinement/comfort levels 10 fold.But I can't see the ute matching the Escort's corner speed. :(Oh how It loves corners. Shame there isn't any in Townsville!! The Escort does awesome J-turns too. I'll miss that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been driving an Explorer for four years (Had an XLT for 2 years, then got the Limited 2 years ago). Before that, I drove a Golf III Cabriolet (back in South Africa).
