looks good mate. I suggest changing the LEDS for white ones tho,or removing them altogether,the washer jets are terrible.Clean that engine bay up and it'll be sexual,check my topic to see just how ghood the escort engine bay can look,they can look even better than mine actually,mine needs t-cutting

with respect to power mate dont expect a power increase from the 1.6, so either change the engine (later date) and mod it with crossover stuff,induction exhaust etc or just do backbox and induction and run it til u can afford a better car. Please dont chip it or add cams etc as u'll only gain a few BHP,and cams and chip are a lot of money for no power

GTI=waste of insurance money. The Si is the same but without the kit (which u know can be bought for pittence)the leather,and the ABS and much lower ins grp. I recomend a 2.0 swap mate. Wish i'd done it now. Cheap as chips and makes the car "quick" (sub 8.0 to 60)

1.8 is a good engine and with 130 spec its nice,but its cheaper to go 2.0

2.0 is 136BHP@5250RPM (or thereabouts) meaning u get 135-136lb/ft of torque so it pulls like a train

i recomend it mate.it only costs a few hundred quid like
