ST150 with a few subtle changes to Ford's original restrictive stock parts makes it one of the most fun cars you will ever drive! And not to mention will stand up to all the other hatches of that era. A shame Ford restricted It so much otherwise maybe would have been up there with the Type R etc...

I tuned a MK2 XR2 to 135 HP in the 90's. Got it into a popular motoring magazine at the time. NOT Max Power! Mine looked completely stock bar a different exhaust. 135 HP is not a lot today, but with only 840 kg to pull along it was plenty fast at the time. No turbocharged either. It was a bored out 1600, with high lift cam, twin Weber's, etc. People moan about the CVH engine. But the tuned example in my car went very well, revved nicely and sounded utterly awesome. It was an utter riot to drive. Now re-living those lightweight hot hatch days in the latest turbo Swift Sport. With 975 kg to pull, and approx. 163 HP on tap using premium fuel. It is plenty quick enough. Supremely agile with such lightweight. Everyone should drive a lightweight car with a decent chassis. They would then realise just how lifeless heavy cars are to drive. No matter how powerful. Great video!

Oh on the latest ecoboost crap coming through the workshop thick and fast now with head gaskets and water seals.

Mine had Stage 2 head, 285 cam, DMTR carb.. went like stink. Probably nowhere near even 120bhp but the immediacy and driveability was amazing. The larger twin choke carb barked like a dog and it was a joy to drive. Fuel consumption was pitiful though given the performance. You could watch the needle dive :( Of course in those days you did it all yourself on the roadside outside your house. No laptops, no sending it to the tuners with a blank cheque.
@MrZekToR5 жыл бұрын
@@therealdunketh Totally agree, you didn't need tons of power to pull 840kg of car along. But yes, the feel of the car from behind the wheel is lost with modern cars. Same here, most mods / tuning was done outside my parents house, or in a friends garage. Only the final tuning of the timing / twin carbs was entrusted to a rolling road tuner. Great times.
@MrZekToR5 жыл бұрын
@@mazdaman1286 Yes, I have such great memories from behind the wheel of my tuned XR2. I was in my early to mid 20's at that point. 135 HP in an 840kg car was a riot back then. So light and chuckable, and plenty fast enough. I've had many more powerful and heavier cars since that point. But none of those bigger, heavier more powerful cars have felt more 'alive' than my old XR2 did. So, 3 years ago I decided to abandon overweight, powerful cars and get back into something lightweight - but reasonably quick. Straight-line performance for me is secondary to the driving experience. So in 2016, bought a new NA Suzuki Swift Sport. 1040kg in weight - 136 HP. Here was a modern car that was as close to the concept of an XR2 as I could find... and it was bl**dy awesome fun. So much so, that 2 years later - I bought the new 2018 turbocharged Swift Sport. Even lighter at 975kg. Again, it is a total riot to drive. You can have fun anywhere in cars like these. Epic handling, supreme agility and chuckability… it's like an XR2 on steroids. I'm having more fun now behind the wheel than I've had with cars for a long time... right back to the XR2 days. Awesome.

Escort RS Cosworth is the very best of any hot hatch Ford ever made. Mind you at £30k for a quality one these days there are plenty of fantastic cheap alternatives. The best dirt cheap one is the Puma with the Yamaha 1.7 engine of course! 1000 of your British pounds buys a decent one in need of a little love but perfectly serviceable otherwise. Generally the rear arches get bubbled up but it's not a disaster, and not too expensive to have tidied up professionally. Besides this the mk5 Fiesta ST where £2500 gets a good un, and my personal favourite pick the mk2 Focus ST with the muscular Volvo 2.5 five cylinder turbo. A decent example can be had these days for a mere £4k, £5k gets a mint low mileage early one.

Are you sure? Depending on counting the Mk6 is sometimes the Mk5. Couldn't find any mention about a ST on Mk5, only XR2i 8/16V or RS Turbo. Or was it just a concept?

@@K-oZ blast from the past but yeah. Dunno what I was smoking. Mk5 hot version was the ‘Zetec S’ of course. Well caught!

Sorry, I had a mk2 xr2 about 30 years ago and it was such a heap of crap I got rid of it after a week. Very slow, crap handling, crap brakes. Got a golf gti mk2 instead which was massively better in all areas.
