And we're talking about cars that were not so popular before. Like a RWD Sapphire Cosworth, a MK2 XR2 (although in Germany nearly all want a MK1 Fiesta), MK3/4 Escort XR3i, Sierra XR4i etc.

Problem is there's too many people out there who don't know what to do with their money and fancy a classic car to play with the other "kids".
In the latest Classic Ford magazine there is a 1971 Escort RS 1600 Escort up for £84,995!!!
