Depends if you speak to owners,sellers or buyers,as an owner yes worth the money,as said above are like a 500 and a bit special,but if i couldnt afford a good escort i would rather have a nice saff than a rough escort,if you want something to drive and enjoy buy something jap or a nice standard 2wd saff,if you speak to a seller they are to cheap just now,go ask the same question on www.escortrscosworth.com and see the reply
remember these cars have hand built shells by karmen in germany ,not some mass produced taxi shell lol
