DAMN I MISS THAT CAR

Will try and find more pics.

 

Like it m8 . Could be on a private plate now, how long ago did you sell it????

 

That looks lovely Michael.....can see why you miss it mate.

Always wondered what happened to my old Escos, then I bought Performance Ford March '06 turned to page 128 and there she was M486 UEV. Sitting all proud with the bonnet up at one of the shows by the looks of things, was well chuffed to see that she's being looked after .

Good luck with the search matey.

 

Cheers for the comments guys.

I sold it about 3 years ago, but i saw a photo of it recently, beside the Forth Road Bridge in Scotland, and was pictured next to a mallard green one, reg no GAZ ***

Any ideas ?

 

I nearly bought it a while back, had a few too many miles on it for me though! Looks stunning!

 

This is an old advert for it..........

That looks stunning mate, what you got now??

 

That was the guy i sold it to 3 years ago.....funny thing is i sold it to him for Ł15k then he asked Ł17 for it after he had caned it and put on about 6k miles lol

 

I don't know anything about this car but i know i like it So much so i think i'm gonna make that first pic my desktop background

 

Could bgelong to a guy called "holty" on here.

Hes from up this way (scotland) and has a radiant red cos, on a private plate now though, hence why i cant confirm if its his or not.

 

that's my mates car,it still the exact same,& before you ask he aint selling it

cheers, mine sitting a tad high IMO

 

the pic with the cars at the forth bridge is superb

 

Came to look at that car years ago...Even flew up north to see it!

 

That is holty's.

 

Who was selling it at that point mate ? I sold it to a guy in ireland, and he sold it to the current owner beside edinburgh. The guy who bought it from me in ireland was the only viewer, and bought it 23 hours after i had posted it on Autotrader.

KSA- The car isnt holtys mate, i asked him i have been in touch with the current owner who still has it, and its off the road for the winter.

 

sure Holty bought his standard looking ad then added the bits to it.

 

Looks lovely

 

does this one belong to steve hinks

 

nah, its not hinksys, his was standard too when he got it.
and his is still getting its neck rung nearly every day!!!!!

its just back from gettin a T35 and bigger injectors fitted,goes well now!

 

seen this at AVA not lat long ago..

was with gaz 345...

not stevie hinks

 

Theres a name i havent heard in a long time !!

The Rondells on my old Red Escos above actually came off of Stevies White Escos he had at the same time as i had this.....

I had heard he had a red one now.

 

Yep hes got a red one now on Rondells.

 

Holtys plate is E5CDS

 

That is an NI reg? Can you keep them on the mainland?

 

Yup....heaps of them.

Some UK companies actually sell N.Ireland numbers and make a profit, as they look like names........easy money eh !

DAZ, SAZ etc

 

Those Rondells on holty's car were mine, they were bufty wheels till he bought them off me, lol

 

Aye the've had a hard life since then scott

 

now that looks stunning in them pics

 

I love the long-whinded links between Cosworths like this..I have his wheels, he bought this car after I flew up to see it...I took a photo of my car beside that one at a show etc, classic Lovely car, very glad to hear it's still being looked after so well

 

This plate the last owner put on. Its crap going to put it back on its real plate
