Neglected ST resto for £1500 ?

That’s not a bad car at all, yes it needs cleaning and some bits tidying, but there’s lots more out there in daily use worse than that, it's last MOT fail was back in 2011. Good old YouTube, the home of the over exaggerated title!

I think there's a good car underneath all the muck and tatty cosmetic mods.

Once it's been serviced and checked over it should go well too being Stage 2.

Seeing the Code Red and Wolf graphics took me back !

Found this from the archives showing what the mods were...

Ep.2 Engine misfire sorted & car cleaned...

Have you seen the mk2 RS videos they’re doing? The prices of the plastic parts are an absolute joke. 😧

That second video goes to prove how you shouldn't assume the worst. Cracked liners are rare, not inevitable, as legend seems to perpetrate.

Totally crazy. Especially those £600 each wheel arch liners which are actually one and a half ST ones !

Ep.3 and the costs start to mount...

Yeah been watching this too! I haven't watched a lot of their stuff but do watch anything they do ford related! The way they banter/bicker at each other gets on my nerves tbh lol..... and Ben comes across as seriously arrogant when they do it... However.. I have to say the recent videos they've done with him in more of a 'presenter' role, I think Bens come across really well!

I've been watching from when it was just Lee and his Nissan GTR. It was quite a development bringing in Ben and the banter between them was great IMO.

I then thought they went a bit far with all the expensive German cars and then Lee got a McLaren !

The latest videos going back to basics and with Ben becoming a mechanic has been quite interesting, but I do find it less entertaining as there's not much actual driving. The recent road-trip to N.Wales to put some miles on the Leon Cupra was much more fun.
