In Euroland we got the mk3 Escorts (first of the transverse engined fwd one) with a 1.6 diesel engine. There then came a 1.8 which came with a few subtle differences.

I still wake up in the middle of the night screaming of the horror! :P
Make fantastic boat anchors though. ;D

The cam shims of those ford diesels also fit peugeot and probably early VW's...............probably!
