Hi folks, I'm putting this up for sale as I've lost interest breaking it now, got all the bits I wanted so I'll give someone else the chance to have some bits and/or make some money from the bits on it.

Escort Mk5 1.6 Cosworth Replica, has an Escort RS Turbo engine in it, the turbo is still in place and it's got a full big bore exhaust. The loom is a bit chopped up so it doesn't run and some bits have been removed. Some bits I've still got though and they can go with the car. A couple of bits have been sold such as the crossover pipe, but most of it's still on the car or in my garage.I've still got the rad/intercooler expansion bottle/ecus etc. As you can see it's even got a chrome rocker cover.

It's got genuine Escort Cosworth metal front wings on it and 16" Mondeo Cossie style wheels (3 out of 4 tyres are decent), rear disk conversion, lowered suspension and uprated springs as you can see from the pics.
It's got fibreglass bodykit, rear quarters and rear bumper, the drivers side quarter is good, the passengers not so good. I've actually got the small front sections of bodykit too if you want them, one is good, one not as good but repairable. No front bumper, bonnet or boot lid.

It's got the VIN tag on it and it's hpi clear, I have the logbook in my name, it's even got a good plate if you can get it off, CDZ 135. It has been on SORN for quite a long time so has no MOT, but I did ring DVLA a while ago and it may be possible as there has been no breaks in the SORN. I can't guarantee that though because they weren't 100% sure without the application being put in. If you can get this off though you've made your money back just on that, it must be worth the asking price of the car.

The interior is as you see here, i.e. not a lot. I do have a proper Cosworth cloth trim though, but that is not included in this sale.

I'm looking for £350 and no offers. The wings and the wheels are worth that so there's no way I'd go any lower. If it doesn't sell at this price I'll just keep going breaking it and make more money in the long term. Just lost interest really and would rather sell it.

Might be interested in swapping for something but it would depend what it was, let me know what you've got, I'll listen to anything so long as you're realistic price-wise. Ideally I'd rather just have the cash though.

Any questions, please give me a shout.

Oh, it would need to be collected on a trailer from me in Lincoln.

Anyway, here's some pics.

I want it to go as is mate if possible, although if someone wants to bring their own wheels I'd be happy to take those ones off and sell for £300.
The shell's rotten on the floor and under the arches, and on the front panel.

so this would be good to fit a sierra floor to then run 4x4

It's a normal Escort Mk5 1.6, not a real Escort Cosworth shell, although the front wings are genuine Escort Cosworth.

If I was selling a real Escort Cosworth shell for £380 I'd have to be off my head.

I suppose if you're handy enough anything's possible.

Yes, very much priced to sell. Just want it out of my way really, and one genuine person to actually do what they say they're going to, which seems to be becoming a rarity these days. But I'm not bitter.

Now sold to one of the most genuine guys I've ever met when doing stuff with cars. Many thanks Lennie.

Err, this seems like quite a random reply, but i followed this car on the back of a trailer out of the blackwall tunnel yesterday.

Thought it was a cossie from a distance and got closer and saw the cvh.

Nice one. Yes, it had obviously had a fair bit of money spent on it in it's time to make it look right.

Watch this space, soon there might be another one up for sale, and unless you were really up close you'd struggle to tell this from a real one. Then that's me finished with playing about with cars I think, I'm just going to keep my real Cossie and the Mondeo. Lost interest in doing them up or breaking them down as a hobby really.
