Hi All,

I have just recently joined this forum and have come from the bx 16v forum which i have been a member of for 5 years. I reconise a few of you on here from the 16v forum but for the benefit of people who dont know me my names rob and a own 2 p2 bx 16vs an 8v gti and an escort rs turbo s2 90 spec. I have had my red 16v for 5 years but prior to that ive had 2 8v gtis and a phase 1 16v. As youve probably guessed i like bxs especialy the 16v models

Welcome Rob, nice pics of rally nice cars, what, are you trying piss everyone off on here

we seldom see the sun up north, let alone have it glinting in our highly polished pristine motors.

What Ken said! Also congrats from me on two stunning cars, you must be very proud to own such mint examples.

Hey up timmo! Im starting to venture around some of these forums nowadays meet some new people like

The 2 16vs are truly mint examples the red phase2 has had a lot of work done to it mechanical and bodystyling wise and owes me somewhere in the region of £10,000 but will never be for sale. The green phase 2 i have had for about 2 weeks it was the one on e-bay with a broken cambelt and no pic when it didnt sell it was repaired and sold on to me and i have so say im glad it was saved as again its had loads of money spent on it and is far to good to scrap or break i like it so much that im selling my escort rs turbo and using the green 16v as a replacement for it. Like i say i have also got a mint olyimpic blue gti 8v with aircon! but its parked up in the north west at the mo and as soon as i can ill get some pics of it for you lot

Thanks for your comments rob

Yes I remember you now, we spent the evening talking BX! I followed your dads tip about the rear arms/ABS sensors and it worked a treat, give him my regards.
