Dunno never heard back from the dude?

Although one thing I did find out today that is really weird, I've been at home ill with the flu for last couple of days and today bored I put on a Jeremy Clarkson vid 'full throttle' the one where all the Escort Cossies drag race and the MAD cos K44 ACE whoops everyone.. anyway whilst watching it I see Dave Moss's cossie and Ian Howells then I saw a Mallard Green Esc Cos with a familer number plate!.. my Monte! how fucking weird! Rewinded the tape loads and even looked out the window to double check the plate! Deffinalty my Monte with some 17's, clear front indicators, morrettes, a stainless steel exhaust and all the Monte decals removed. The owner must have kept all the standard items and put them back on when he sold it on.. It came fifth in the race so may have even been running a stage 3? as it didn't perform like standard/stage 1
From my working out the vid was made around '99/'00 so this was the second owner (who had it the longest) that according to the history did very very little miles averaging around 2k per year so if the Monte wheels etc had been put away would explain why all the standard bits are so mint.

seand give me a shout when you can pls mate
