I think it is
you that is out of touch with the world of Classic Fords my friend.
There are a lot of people out there wanting MkII Escorts either to turn into fast road cars or rally cars and mint RS cars are fetching silly money because the demand is high and the supply of proper cars is limited.
And for any business with proper overheads to work on less than 20-30% margin is commercial suicide.
Why are there so many people out there who have no idea about running businesses and the world of business soo quick to comment on how others should run their business and that everyone who has a business must be bastard minted and out to rip everyone off ?
Tell you what Murdo.. give us a clue..... how much should he charge for the escort if he bought it for £5995 ?
