M9 COS-Concours Winning Escort Cosworth****SOLD!!*****

**ESCYSCOTT** · 20-10-2009, 09:11 AM

Humming and harring on for ages about selling her as I want something more usable that I won't worry about driving too much!
It's the same old story i'm afraid though as if I don't get a decent realistic offer for her then she'll be going nowhere.

OK, How much am I after then??????? Realistically! Are modified escort cosworths selling at this moment in time? The right ones are I think! I know mine in some peoples eyes is in boring Mallard Green but imo, it's one of the best colours to show the lines of the car especially in the sunlight!!

I am wanting £27,500 for her which is £5k less than she is valued at. I'm in no hurry to sell her as she is SORN for the winter and i'll be starting to tinker with her soon and giving her a good winter bufty.
I am wanting to build a track escos so i'd maybe do a deal on one?

***NOW £25,500***
