Default Escort Cosworth Prices

Hello Chaps

Following on from the post about the Q Plate Cossie, I just wondered what everyones thoughts were on Cat C & D Motors?

I bought mine 2 years ago but it had been Cat C'd back in 2001, I bought it to strip and rebuild as the repair hadn't been done perfectly.
It had been hit at the front and scraped down the near side.
I took it to SC Gordons which were a Bentley authorised body shop, they repaired the panels as neccessary and repainted the whole car in its original mallard green.
At one point, my car was parked between the Sultan of Brunai's Ferrari and David Beckhams Black Bentley
Whilst they had the car, I stripped the engine, interior etc and then rebuilt it all.
I have a massive pile of receipts and 1 large one with Bentley headed paper!

Just wondered what people would think about the car?

Escort Cosworth Large Turbo Lux with Cloth Trim
Mallard Green
44k miles
Most of the service history
Pretty much all original except for Mongoose Exhaust, 500 cooler, Black silcone hoses, clear lights, birba gauges, delocked, Group N Head Gasket & Stage 1 Chip.
It has many many new parts including Original Wheels etc

PS, this is not a For Sale ad, and I have no interest in selling it after spending a lot of money and 2 years of my life rebuilding it

All comments gratefully received.

Cheers

Paul
