AHHH! That R40, (thought it was a new computer game - DUH!) Escort dry sump oil tanks in the boot of Escorts, never in a gear ridden Mini though. And yes, remember the pong of Ford Escorts, all the way from Essex OOO numberplates and all that. Should have been shot from birth! :o
Ex-BMC driver, Timo Makinen, three on the trot with an Escort on the RAC Rally 1973-75 - judas! :D
