The Fords Of TRAX 2018
Posted: 21st October 2018 | Author: @AdrianFRST | Photography: @AdrianFRST
Sometimes you take a chance and it just works out. Like planning a car show to take place in October, in the UK. Incredibly instead of freezing cold and rain the weather was spectacular - dry with blue skies and sunshine. Great weather brings out great cars whose owners may not venture out in inclement conditions, and that certainly seemed to be the case.
There were quite a few cars we saw at Ford Fair, but also plenty we didn’t. The RS200 replica sported a Cosworth engine. I’m not sure what it’s based on as a registration lookup has it down as a Mercury Lynx - a rebadged version of the American version of the Escort.
Star of the show for me was the smooth Mk5 Fiesta on gold wheels. At first glance it doesn’t seem to be anything special, but a closer look revealed an incredible amount of work and some fantastic details. There was enough to warrant a mini feature so look out for that in the coming weeks.
