    You should take your dad's mk3 Marcus & get rid of one of your old escorts or get rid of Roger the plastic Fiesta & see if Kat wants it. Looks lovely tbf, don't see them on the road much at all anymore, your old man has kept it well 👍🏻 ❤️

    • @marcushayesford
      @marcushayesford  ปีที่แล้ว

      If I get rid of one of my Escorts I would have to get rid of both of them. I can't own 'Esther' if I don't have 'Maude' to abuse and drift. Mk1s and Mk2s are what Im mainly into altho I have really enjoyed having the Mk3 around too. 👍

      @MARCUS HAYES Maybe, but prefer the Mk2. My mate's Dad sometimes took us to school in his purple Mk2 Mexico. I'll never forget the buzz I got out of it. Probably the only reason I didn't bunk off school lol!. Enjoying your channel bigtime mate!
