There there, have a nice lie down. Everything will be ok in the morning.

 

[Riding in Circles]

I still think it looks great.

It needs some fluffy dice hanging from the rear view miror, then it will look fantastic!!

I agree,top car of its time,but a mate of mine had insurance problems,it doubled because his had a skirt on it,seemed unreasonable from the insurance company and they wouldnt budge.

I think they still look good.

Cars of that era had a sleek appearance, today most of them look like oversize Tonka Toys.

Still got classic looks for me...i always loved it.
The nearest i got was an Opel Ascona 2.0SR.

how can you think the first one doesn't look great, it's a fine car... second one's not too bad either

 

[fossyant]

[Rhythm Thief]

Both classic eighties motors.

l, when the only thing that has changed is time?

Not only has time changed, but you have changed, you have matured.

Looking fantastic to awful, when the only thing that has changed is time?

When I was a kid I used to drool over this-

I had a black one of those in the late 80s. Fell asleep on the M6 and woke up some days later in Preston hospital. Happy memories.

Don't forget the Cossy:

... or the Escort Cossy:

... or that other great 80's / 90's Ford (the 2.8i bad-boy the Professionals flew about in):

Must say though, the Manta 2.0 was also popular, and I had more than a couple of hairy moments in a 1.8 Triumph Dolly (did they have twin Lucas 45's?)

Sorry, mis-spend youth working in a vehicle recyclers!

Nice if they are still in factory condition but lose credibility once people start to convert them, add after market body panels, accessories etc
