Im building one at the min you can come over to Ireland for a couple of days when its done. Should be around 280bhp. Its a painted shell at the min. Have most of the parts gathered up now. Just need it put together.
Don’t be too hard on this guy, some folks clam up on camera quite severely……give him a break, he did at least bring his RS to Adams channel……..which is simply awesome. Wish I’d kept mine!
What a car that is! Hats off to the guy for going in front of the camera, it’s harder than you think standing with stranger and a camera (imagine how them girls on the black couch feel, lol) Especially when there’s 70k subscribers waiting to watch you 👏👏👏
The look , the smell , the noise. It’s a Mk2 RS 2000 what more can you say , it’s makes you smile Once you have owned one there is nothing else comes close. 😊
@@robmeneice5060its as though he's just won it on dream car giveaways and isn't interested in fords and has MG in the garage he's been restoring for 35 years, proper escort though, I'd be creaming my pants everytime i got in it
1:22 oh it's fully stripped out alright, you can tell from the noise of that door opening 🙂 2:26 *GOD DAMN* 2:48 I love this guy, he's like an East London villain or something 😂 3:03 He is ragging the arse off it! One of the best videos on this channel and I have seen _a lot_ of different cars!
TSN270S My one and only White 2 Door Mk2 Escort back in 1992.... Crashed it innto a bridge after 8 weeks, drove it all twisted to my Childhood local garage, who gave me 120 quid for it and turned it into a Rally Car.... Miss it
Mate of mine his dad built a MK2 with a Type R engine in it the most insane beautiful thing I have ever seen Sadly he past away at a young age but my mate will never sell it.
@@jamesarmitage8399 He is awesome because he is in the restoration scene, put 230 BHP in an old af Escort, stripped it out and rags the arse off it. What more do you want, some 25 year old chav with a big ego? People are being sly in the comments. I'd go for a pint with the dude.
Old Skool car n dude nice to see a serious Pinto such a great lump but when stroked different league makes a change from the valver conversions which are the norm....but that sort of power from a Pinto is mega bucks fair play nice build...cheers Adam
I bought a 2nd hand Dave Brooks built 1600cc Toyota 4AGE engine out of a circuit racer to drop into my Mk1 MR2 rally car. It made 174 bhp at the wheels on the dyno, on Jenveys and Omex management. (About 205 bhp at the flywheel). The old engine that was in the rally car was built by a 4AGE guru (whose name I won't mention) , and it made 137 bhp at the wheels. The factory motor made 122 bhp at the flywheel. Dave Brooks knows Ford motors, but he said the Toyota 4AGE is a lot like the BDA in design. He can definitely built a spicy motor, with good manners.
Seems like a right barrel of laughs that fella and looks totally out of place in that car. Maybe he should stick to bowling or tending to homing pigeons? UPDATE: I believe he did try the pigeon thing but they didn't come back!
Standing in front of a camera is not as easy at it looks! I would probably clam up a bit too in his situation. Luckily my 2016 Fabia Monte Carlo is unlikely to feature on any channels soon.
Imagine meeting this guy at a show, admiring his car, asking him some complimentary questions as you do? He probably has no wife because he bored the arse off her so he bought this, cheer up fella it’s not a daewo matiz. You done well Adam to even get the make of the car from him, why feature your car and then act like you in the naughty corner
Some car that beautiful thing and impeccably built, bet it's rapid as well, fella seems sound as well you don't own/jockey a minter like that if you don't have something about you probably not used to being on camera a true old school fella
Love the car don’t know many people who don’t like a mk 2 escort looks and sounds great. Just wish you could have shut the owner up never stopped blar blar blar 😂😂
Never built a flat front rs2000 , I think a lot must of got damaged and the cost would of been a lot for the nose cone etc so the flat front wings etc were put on ,
Bloody hell double of mine but my interior is more spaced and full weld in cage not bolt in , infact mine is a lot higher spec more I look at it, mines also locked away for winter now so maybe next year you could get it on your channel Adam
Fancy getting your car on the channel? Drop me a message on any of my social media 😊👍🏼

Il get mine on when finished 🫣
Ive got something for you @Adam151082 I'm well on with building a mondeo sleeper 😜
I've got something that might interest you , where do I send the info ?
Man of little words, but impeccable taste 👍
awesome car. owner obviously a bit camera shy but the man has impeccable taste in cars. fair play to him.
Don’t be too hard on this guy, some folks clam up on camera quite severely……give him a break, he did at least bring his RS to Adams channel……..which is simply awesome. Wish I’d kept mine!
Look at how he drives it - I wouldn't be hard on anyone driving the way this guy did, he was caning the arse off it!

I couldn’t agree more, I could chat about cars all day long but put a camera in front of me & id be the shyest person known lol.
Wow he has some charisma!!
He has autism
Love it when I get a notification for a new Adam Smith video 🫡👌
Cheers Daniel
That car sits so well, beautiful car. Quiet bloke but my god he has good taste.
He’s the definition of watching paint dry 🥱
Hard work definitely lol
Paint watches him dry !
Lol lol 😂😂😂 yer great car tho
A man of very few words.
@@benturner868😂😂😂😂

👍🏼😂😂

Once you have owned one there is nothing else comes close. 😊
Stunning car and spec. It's great to see the owner actually uses it, and was good enough to share it with us all through Adam's channel.
Beautiful car. Owner looked camera shy.
Could only manage 1.56 minutes. The enthusiasm was overwhelming 😅 sick RS tho,
1.24 minutes for me. Got bored and came straight to the comments!
😅
Lol lol. I gave up after 2.28mins. Must mean I am boring than yous.
What a boring man what a shame

You guys missed out, he broke into a big song and dance number with scantly clad babes.
Awesome Mk2. Love the wheels, arches and the power. A stunner.
Cheer up mate your own a awesome car
Classic WRC vibes right there and road legal too. Great build with the perfect stance too

Oh man !
That looks perfect.
And it's a flat front too, bloody love it !!!
That is a clean build, driven as it should be. Excellent video.
Miss my 1980 MK2.
What a car !! 👍🇦🇺
Great car looks amazing , trying to talk to the owner was like pulling teeth! You wouldn’t be able to shut me up if I owned a car like this
Awesome car isn’t it!! 👌🏼
@@Adam151082 What about the bloke?
@@ramalama9650 Not so awesome! lol

love this man is a driver
Christ…like getting blood from a stone, fair play adam, ya had your work cut out there 😂
People will rag on him but IDGAF about all that, his driving more than made up for it.

Love the look & sounds of this MK 2. Enjoy your car Mark.
That dude must be amazing at parties! /s
Beautiful car and I'm sure he's a lovely fella, just a bit camera shy.
Exactly and every cunt on here taking the piss out of him
Gotta have an exciting motor when you’re such a huge personality 🤤🥱
White and Gold looks stunning
Impossible not to appreciate a mk2 escort
Lovely looking mk2.
Youve got to remember though not everyone likes to filmed,can be out of some peoples comfort zone.
That car sounds awesome, hard to get that across on video but Adam smashed it 👍
What a stunning mk2 perfect

My 4AGE mk1 Cortina was loud like that for my first drive, then I pulled everything out and sound deadend and carpeted it - i must be getting old
Definitely looks the part..
No need for any music 8 track sound system...
When you can listen to the sweetest sound of a beauty as meant to be 🔊
very nice escort, proper engine too.
They look amazing in white
Seems like a right barrel of laughs that fella and looks totally out of place in that car.
Maybe he should stick to bowling or tending to homing pigeons?
UPDATE:
I believe he did try the pigeon thing but they didn't come back!
Never clicked on a video as fast in my life
Ow wow what a MK 2 that is I'd give my right arm 2 own that it's absolutely mint adam
Holy shit, Mr Dour.... I'm depressed after 3 mins in. Sorry, can't watch anymore or I'll go top myself......
I really don't see the issue with the owner the comments are a bit harsh. Not everyone has adams patter
Standing in front of a camera is not as easy at it looks! I would probably clam up a bit too in his situation. Luckily my 2016 Fabia Monte Carlo is unlikely to feature on any channels soon.
At least he's not loud and shouty
I couldn't even finish the video, the guy was morbid!
Imagine meeting this guy at a show, admiring his car, asking him some complimentary questions as you do? He probably has no wife because he bored the arse off her so he bought this, cheer up fella it’s not a daewo matiz. You done well Adam to even get the make of the car from him, why feature your car and then act like you in the naughty corner
These comments are a little brutal!!
I love the mk2 escorts
Loved it mate and was a volume up one for me haha
Some car that beautiful thing and impeccably built, bet it's rapid as well, fella seems sound as well you don't own/jockey a minter like that if you don't have something about you probably not used to being on camera a true old school fella

Great job making a vid 😮great car and great info… owner not a chat on vid kind of guy…

Gorgeous car.
That is how you want a mk2 to look.
Shame he hasnt got his own youtube channel . Would have been handy for getting the kids to sleep 😅 Jokes aside, what a awesome car.
Lmao 😅
Fantastic car,and the owner is probably just a quieter sort of bloke,we're here for the car's.not the owner's!!
Weapon.....my dream car❤
Beautiful car
Beautiful car 👌
He drives it better than talking about it 😂😂😂
His crack was diabolical 😂
Jesus! Imagine sitting next to him at a Christmas party!
Imagine being retired and having this in your garage to blast around the lanes in.. you'd feel 18 again every day.
Knew I’d seen that car before..
Was at Thorsby Car Show 2 years ago.. have pics of on my phone…
I know this man your lucky to get as many words has he has spoken he normally uses sign language
All steel ! & Atlas axle, I wonder what that red lines at...?
Oozing enthusiasm 😂
Do you want me to leave any links to social media ? "NAH" 🤣
A decent man - nonsense with him👌
Never built a flat front rs2000 , I think a lot must of got damaged and the cost would of been a lot for the nose cone etc so the flat front wings etc were put on ,
The MK2 RS flat front was the Mexico (1600 pinto) & the RS1800... (BDA)...
All MK2 RS2000 were droop-snoop (2.0 Pinto)...👍
she,s a beaut love it!.
WTF is he taking happy pills. lol
Your face says it all!!!!
950 Pop, if bought off thiefbay!
Bloody hell double of mine but my interior is more spaced and full weld in cage not bolt in , infact mine is a lot higher spec more I look at it, mines also locked away for winter now so maybe next year you could get it on your channel Adam
Winter is 12 months of the year now 😂
This bloke is a legit ♻️ teenager 😂
Could do a bank job with this bloke, he’d be perfect in a police interview 🤐😂
Bought not built…. At least he honest.
Car looks great, wheels poss a bit big? But overall mint!
Bet he's fun at parties 😂
Mental Escort!!!
Glad you are ok Adam. Keep smiling.
