Oh come off it mate, what are you basing that on??? Theres always been the odd escos for sale at £10k and quite often a couple below that, but a £10k escos is a £10k escos for a reason. Yes theres still some advertised for around £10k and sometimes even a bit less, but youll find that they are priced like that for one reason or another.

Like the one above, it looks a good buy for £9k, but when you notice that its had a rwd conversion then thats the main reason why its that price im sure. Still a good car for the money though despite being rwd im sure. But that will massively limit the market for a car that already has a limited market to start with, so has to be priced to reflect that in my opinion.

£10k has been bottom end money for as long as i can rememeber, and still is, just like it has been, and still is around £13k-16k has for a decent one, with minters going for more.

The 'recession' we're in is proportionate with most cars, so if you find a seller that needs the money or a quick sale, regardless of what tyoe of escos they have, you have more bargaining power so may get a little more knocked off if your lucky.
