The man behind the wheel...

"The first car I ever drove was a Ford Escort Mk2 1100L, as you can tell, I've always liked Ford's. I've always had a love for the marque from a young age. This stemmed from my dad - he used to rally the mk1 and mk2 'Escort Mexico' back in the 1970's.

Despite loving cars from a young age, when it came to modified cars, I didn't actually own my first one until I was 24. Since then, I've done a lot of research into what companies I want to work on my car. Now, I only use Auto Specialists to work on my car - I've always been impressed with their standard of work.

In addition to work being performed on the car, it's only fair to show off the car off afterwards - right? When I get the time, I do like to attend car events. To name a few, I like going to: Isle of Wight Takeover, Essex Ford Meet, Rates Ford open-day and Ford Fair.

What does the future hold for my car? Well, at the minute, I've got everything I want on the Mk2 Ford Focus RS. I suppose I will need an up-rated clutch at some point, though. Apart from this, I have no current plans to further modify the car - I'm truly happy with it how it is!
