Petrol cap is the wrong side for an Escort, or any ford for that matter.

Robin got it! Carlton!
A sort-lived game, but I thought it might interest some people!

Carlton Gsi...Lotus Carlton Replica.
I've got the bonnet vents which need putting on, plus I need the Lotus 'Carlton' badge for the back instea of the normal Vauxhall 'Carlton' badge. Also wouldnt mind getting the twin square tail pipes too.

It's been chipped, s/s exhaust, K&N panel filter. The previous owner reckons it's putting out about 230 bhp

Thought I might put smoked oval side reps on it instead of the 'retro' orange ones? What do you reckon?

Nah, just colourcode the door handles and numberplate light, do the badge and vents and it will be fine.

It pulls like a train...at low revs its pretty uneventful, but change down and it's good fun!
The cruise control doesnt work...which isnt unsual for a car like this, but any ideas on what could be wrong, as I'm quite keen to get it fixed, but dont fancy spending a fortune on it?
