Not being funny...
But if something is TOO good to be true... it usually is.
An escos at 8k is usually too good to be true or FUCKED or a ringer or a reshell or a catd or catc.
So one at 5.5k with a few nice bits on......
Do you have to ask???

Looking a bit deeper...........
It looks like this person is from the U.S. or registered through ebay.com as opposed to ebay.co.uk
When pictures are uploaded to ebay.co.uk, the URL of the picture starts with http://i15.ebayimg.com/05/i/000/93/45/piccy.jpg or something like that...
The pictures he has put up are starting: http://img76.imageshack.us/img76/1297/piccy.jpg
Maybe nothing but I thought I'd point it out
Go look at the car and take the RAC with you

Hello,
Please forgive me for my late reply, but I was on a business trip and I just came home. This 1995 ESCORT RS COSWORTH LUX is a great car, never implied in any accident, in excellent condition. There are no signs of prior damage on this vehicle. My job put me on the way to UK and I bought this car there. Now I have to sell it as I've got back home in Hungary. As you know I need a left hand drive vehicle here. The car is registered in UK. The final price is £ 5500 sterling + shipping to your door.The estimated cost for door to door shipping to just about anywhere in the UK will cost about £ 500 GBP. For an accurate shipping cost please include your shipping address in your next email.
All documents, including V5 log book on your name will be provided along with the car.
The transaction will be made under eBay's protection plan for our safety. Your funds will be 100% insured by Ebay who will hold your payment until you receive and test the car. You will have 15 days from the time you receive the vehicle to inspect it and decide if you want to keep it or not. If you are interested in buying it please provide me your full name, address and eBay user id so I can initiate the deal through Ebay. I'm a serious man and I prefer to deal only with a serious buyer. I look forward to hearing from you.
Regards.

If an english person is selling a car, their emails are like this:
Yes mate, I want £10000 for the escort. Why? well I fancy a change. If you want a butchers then give me a bell..
No-one puts all that shit into emails, its simply pointless as 99% of people will not come and look at it.
