i know there are afew of you who collect these and was just wondering,ut models do a black escort cossie and was wandering what sort of cash they go for?
plus maybe by some chance one of you will have one for sale?

any help appreciated

i have 3 race livered rs500's and want to start on th eescorts for a bit of variation.

 

some one had one on here for sale . was Ł100 but im sure he dropped the cost . ive only seen a couple for sale about Ł50-Ł80 but id pay Ł50 but Ł80 is a little steep for my liking .

i wouldnt touch the black one with a barge pole. the windows are fogged been displayed in the sun before for sure ruins em

 

got that on the watch list,thats what made me ask.i wondered what it may rise to.but it aint sounding too good at mo from what you say



XR2I CARL...really?i thought it looked ok.

 

cant believe the price of the mobil 1 one . its at Ł87 already and theres still 3 days left . i wont be winning that one

 

hi Nil

i have many of these models, and have delt with many on ebay, i sold man modded ones on there for whiel and cained it in

anyhow i would not spend more than 25 on this car, and that would be purely to sell on

the windows should crystal clear, the rear window you can clearly see isnt,

therefore not mint and not worth the big asking money that a black one can go for

 

thats the same black one i have but i stupidly took the see through bit off the box

bit of a bugger.i dont want to get too serious on them as i tend to have them in cabinets,so i want good ones but i dont want to spunk silly money either.
i need all the money i can get at the mo for a new car but fancy a few of the escorts to go with my 500's

oph well time will tell.better keep my eyes peeled for a bargin wnat a black one though first

iirc,you are the chap with shit loads then aint you?how do you mod them and they dont fall apart?

 

yeah its me with shit loads and i mod em

there quite a crudely built model really nothjing compared to modern kyosho and the like


they are eas to mod, just come apart and replace the axles and wheels

the modern ones are a bitch

 

I've got a minty mint black one (still have all packaging as well in the loft). What would it sell for if I were to sell?



Got the blue one as well Scuse the dust it was stored while we were moving

 

whats gutting is i remember when all these come out and were a regular site on the shelves in model shops, yet, the only one i bought was the silver wrc street car. I paid Ł22 new for this

 

why?do you want to sell it then?

 

No chance mate

They look smart in my display cabinet, it's just nice to know what these would fetch if I fell on hard times

 

a few pics of some of mine






















thats not all of them either, just the only pics i had in bucket...

they aint in the cabinet anymore, they have been replaced with BMW'S


as i mentioned before i went a little crazy and got whole set twice over, and sometimes 4-5 times over with the cheaper, red blue ones

all got original boxes etc


also got nearly whole set of 1/43 escos too

 

heres my little collection . aint bought none for a while



and here is a better look at my 1/43 rs turbo model . never seen a rs turbo model so i thought i have to have it

 

If you are interested in 1/43 scale Fords checkout

i have a 1/43 hand built series 1 it looks the bollox

 

ask my old chap neil ,he has been collecting them for years and up till a year ago he had every one and all the small ones to

 

he wont sell though will he?

 

bugger, worth a try.

 

xr2i-carl I still love that Bastos escort you've got

 

me to mate

i ahve to say i think the repsol one is the best closely followed by the didier auriol one.

 

Neil there isn't a Didier Auriol 1/18th escort cossie

 

heres a few of mine






check out some of these beuties

 

i the blue and white tiger striped one was auriol's.unless its a malcolm wilson version?

 

Nope wrong again its Francois Delecour

 

you know what,im a dick! thats who i meant anyway i have a pic of the car saved in the computer under delecour! twat.

 

may do as has two or three sets of each i will ask him, is it just the black one your after then?

 

cheers mate.at the moment yes just the black onebut depends what he has
