Anyone got a spare £55k and fancies a Ford Escort...
« on: October 14, 2012, 08:34:39 pm »
.. Well you're in luck - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ESCORT-RS1800-MK2-GENUINE-ROAD-CAR-/221129404022?forcev4exp=true#ht_768wt_1372  :laugh:

A truly great/iconic motor and very very rare, but £55,000?  :confused:

Would have one of these in the stable in a heart beat if my numbers came up, epic car! IIRC there was a Mk1 Mexico recently going for similar crazy money.

You could get an RS3 for that.  :evilgrin:

On a more serious note it's only really worth what someone will pay for it.

Nice collection. See that one in the chaps collection owned by Princess Di, must be worth a wee bit!

You're not wrong.. Forest arches, piss flaps and some big f*ck off cibiés would finish it off nicely..

My kind of cars :notworthy:

Serious classic ford fan here! wish I had kept my series one, I sold it back in 2000. I would also love to tool around in a ford consul gt just like the one in the sweeney (would actually like to be regan in the sweeney :signLOL:)





apologies for the small pics, had to scan them from onto the computer from real photographs(what are they)
Candy White 5 door mk6 gti  and a escort cosworth for wasting money on!!

it's fairly odd that old fords are worth so much

One of my mates likes his fords and he wants a 1995 Escort cosworth lux but they are still fetching strong money

can't say i've see many older dubs apart from the campers fetching high figures

BETTER COLLECTION HERE

I have actually been in (and washed many many times) that Mallard green sapphire cosworth, used to belong to the owner of a Ford dealership that I did my apprenticeship at 17 years ago!
