Swop a Escort RS Cosworth for a 1980 911 Turbo?

Both straight and true cars, stage 3 cosworth to a standard fully rebuilt 911 with 2 year warrenty on the engine?

Personally i wouldnt.

but it would have to depend on how much you love the old 911 Turbos, if theyve always been a dream for you, and somethings thats always caught your heart then go for it.

i do really like them, and i do think they are awesome cars, but my escort against one in comparism to choose - id be keeping my escort every day of the week!

if its black and clean/straight I'd be a tough decision! theyre one of the cars i'd love to own....they'll both hold great value so you could always buy another escos if its not the car for you...

I love that car, from bad boys 1. Anyone owned a 911 turbo and know of any faults, what servicing costs, are they really worth it? can they be tuned for none silly money and what would be needed for 400 ponys?

I'd say no if it was me. I've seen how big a money pit porkies can be. Great cars but they can cost the earth if your an All or nothing sort of person.

G1EN

Have you gone Bonkers....

A difinite NO from me, i wouldnt swap my Escort for any Porka, unless by some miracle i was offered a Carrera GT.

booner999

The one from bad boys would be somethin I would buy if I won the lottery, I would be happy with a normal turbo and some nice wheels, then I would start on the engine

Before I got the cossie I was thinking, its a bit loud and sticks out etc, but now I have it I love it and just see it as a normal car. But the porker would stick out more than the escossy around here. Not only that, some prick will end up keying it etc.. mmmm I will go sit in the corner and do some working outs lol

You shouldn't look at it in this way.

What you should do is value your car, value the Porsche. If you wanted to buy a 911 turbo, would you have to sell your Escort to fund it? If so, then it doesn't matter if you swap or sell your Escort.

booner999

I would have to sell the cossie to buy it, wish I had that much money to keep them all lol

booner999

What is the name etc of that one mate? been looking but all I can find is 911 Turbo with RUF wheels

Bullett

iTrader: (2)

the bad boys one is a 964 turbo 2. very ltd edition.last one i see for sale was 85k for a genuine one not a rep

booner999

mmmmmm on the look now, and getting my lottery numbers sorted for the weekend! If I win, i will higher silverstone and yours all invited to rag the shit out of the porker with me

booner999

Bullett

almost but i think thats the normal one.the ltd version is lightweigth,caged etc etc

sick thing is i couldve bought that porker for a little more than my escos

booner999

yeah but your cossie is sweet mate, and you could still swop the cos in for it when your finished with the escossy

Bullett

iTrader: (2)

you dont know how many times that has crossed my mind.especially with the issues ive had/am having but i love the escy.

i will have a 911 one day to satisfy my curiosity.

booner999
