no worries mate I do understand how you feel,hence my advice to you to sell privatley rather then go to a dealer,just keep trying the problem is its get very expensive at £40 a time in the trader only to get idiots calling asking stupid question and for photos,I hate selling cars i would rather break them unfortunalty I cant break them all,
try E Bay you never know your luck plus there maybe someone out there with a Escort in swap,for the sake of a £10 its worth a go
as to dealer making "thousands" dont you believe it take off £57% of the profit for the goverment and a bit for overheads theres not a lot left in the tin
