Love hate relationship

[Rolls]

That's a queer excuse Neil! You can use it anytime mate, you could use a concours car in the snow, think of all the fun you'd have cleaning it back up again!

LOVE
the sight and sound they make and the general good feeling you have from driving a escos, even on a bad day take the car for a spin and everything else fades away ( not that i had a drive this year mind)
HATE
the cost factor they seem to enjoy using up all of your cash even when not running, and all parts with the word cosworth seems to have a added goverment cosworth tax charge.

the looks and feel good factor

hate

the fear of a breakdown all the time
the constant noise of a bara box

Love - style, performance, and road presence.

Hate - paranoia of general ownership and it breaking, the boy racers trying it on, and hate it when it's dirty!

Hate the running costs

Love. The looks, road presence and how rarely you see them these days.

Hate The bills and the chaved up Saxos coming up to the bumper thinking they stand a chance.
