Thanks mate and yes your right in away it's lesonal clear mate which is the same as sikkens pal as they are the same company and it's just the fact that when sikkens has a product the old sikkens product becomes the new lesonal one mate which is about every year or so and it's less then half the price of when it had sikkens on the tin, which is good but you still get a top product.

id aim for around 7k and let people do offers around there mate.....
its easily worth 7k all day long, just look when the other big spec cars come up they are always around 7/7.5k but most of them end up broken which is a big shame.
best stating what you looking to buy next aswel as the mk3 and see if you get some good offers, im sure you will with it being one of the best all round rs turbos in the country
i would do a deal for my mk3 escort but im now skint , p.s its the one in this months classic ford magazine and was on their show stand at ford fair

Stunning car mate, agree that the 7k area is a price people can get their teeth into. A modded car is always going to have cost more to build and be worth more in parts but breaking something you have built to such a standard..ouch!
Once you get that feeling to move on, it is a nagging feeling no matter how much you enjoy the car, just comes down to can you override those feelings ands and keep enjoying what you have. Or is it time to get stuck into a new project.

Thanks for the nice comments as i have said before did not know what to put it up for and the rules say you need a price and the fact that i keep telling my self that i am making the wrong move, i have now change the price to what you guys think is the right price i was going to put it up at 7.5k but did not want to sell my self to cheap. And this car will not br broken for parts while ever i own it as its such a shame to see nice car getting broke up and i would sooner see some one else enjoy it, i new when i built it i would never get the money back i put into it but thats what happens when your building nice modded motors, i have owned this car for 8years and only drove it for 2years and it is a big part of my life and to be honest i can not see myself letting it go but we will have to wait and see.
cheers fella, no mate i am already bulding a big spec cvh with abit of luck which is meant for this mate and the more and more i think about it i can see it going in it still and no mate i do not have to sell and i would sooner leave it lock in the garage than see it broken for bits.
