I have a buyer for my Escort need to decide by Saturday if I am going to let it go ,
I dont need to sell it but I dont drive it any more,
My options are,
Towards Workshop,
Or Biuld on House,
Or another car,
Somebody did a very good job on convincing me not to sell it today ,
If I dont sell it I am likely to spend over 15K on it as I wont be able to help myself .

Mark

 

i think u shud give it to me as a courtesy car while u sort mine out

 

 

flog it and spunk it on the noble

 

or keep it and build a TOTB monster

 

 

Getting more sort after.

Why spend 15k on it though if you don't drive it,will this make you drive it again.



Dave.

 

We need a monster Es Cos to compete or just to add to the legend of great cars Mark, do it - you only have to pay for parts so not as expensive as most can be

You were always in the limelight a few years back and still are in many ways, but YOU haven't built yourself a car, just customers - not the same IMO

 

My Evo has spoilt me thats why I dont drive it, If I keep it I will spend the money and still not drive it ,
Not going to get a Noble I cant justify spending that amount of money, But I do have thoughts on a Lotus Exige Dont know why as I know it wont be as fast as Evo and break a lot.

Mark

 

KEEP IT M8

 

i assume this was from a convo we also had on saturday aswell, do it mate


ranj

 

Just sell it.

Put the money towards a workshop and move up in the world.

 

keep it as chances are if you get another car youll only spend the 15k on that instead every one knows once you start modding it never stops

 

End of an era mate!!!


Oh and James i think there is one on the way

 

Get rid of it mate, you have an Evo for god sake!!!

 

James

I dont think I now need a demo or Biuld a big power car In the Ford market I have enough cars out there to show I can do it ,
The Evo now going to 550hp and 500ftlb with new rear diff and Carbon prop ,
I should be aiming at a workshop dont wont to rent may buy a Farm instead.

Mark

 

Keep it and make a monster

 

Im surprised you could get in it...coz u are one tall geezer

 

Can i just change the subject a little and ask, is there much difference in cost of tuning between the evo and the escort cosworth??

Thanks

 

Adusr32

I havent tried to get in a Lotus yet .

Mark

 

MAD RST

No diff in running costs on either car.

Mark

 

that will be interesting

 

i had a mission getting into his smart car

 

who ate all the pies

 

The Smart also looked like I had lowerd

Mark

 

not suprised fatty

 

now it fookin handles

coooonnntttssss the lot of ya

 

 

lol went into maidenhead with mark to buy a paddling pool for missus kids, came out of shops with 2 choco muffins

 

I'd say keep it, it's history m8... But then again. You also got an EVO. You have a big luxery problem

If you bored of it, just sell it. Get a bigger workshop or so.. Maybe an escos in the future and built it more powerfull than this one

 

Mark there is no way you are getting into an Exige surely??? At least with an Elise you can take the roof off and peer over the top of the screen

Does that 15k include a decent gearbox and diffs to take the power form the engine mods you no doubt have wizzing around your head??

Just out of interest, I phoned up about a French 4wd tranny that the rallycross guys use today, Ł40k and that don't include the ECU to run it Makes my OS geiken seem a bit Council really!!

 

keep it !!!!!! sell the evo dont loose your ford vision and make it a real monster

 

Mark.........i'd say keep it...

 

in the words of a mate of mine in the car trade
"theres always other cars to buy but not always another punter willing to buy yours"
if your getting what you want for the car then sell it, you can always buy another one if you miss it, as for spending the money on you house ?, you have to look long and hard to see if the expenditure will justify the increase in your property price, sometimes its cheaper to put the money towards a bigger house rather than go for extension etc, cheers nomad

 

Like i said to ya yesterday KEEP IT!!!!

I have an evo6 aswell a an esc cos, and although the the evo drives, handles and generally runs a damn sight better than the cossie, i could never sell the cossie!!!

Especially if i was in the position of Mark, having owned his cossie since NEW! i could never sell it!!!

 

if u dont use it
and preffer the evo sell it and keep going with tthe evo
i am luck enough to have had a ride in the said escos and it really goes well
real well
and a few weeks before i was in a "500 + sapp" of another cossie and marks was right there with it
marks is a 400 conversion though
all the best mate
matt

 

If you like driving the Evo then sell the Escort and progress through investing the money into the business/workshop!

Good Luck!

 

If it's standing around idle then sell it mate, alot of money that could be plowed (sp?) into the Evo sitting there gathering dust!

 

The big question is, have you let it go Mark????

 

today is the day
