Just got back from colchester auctions, was some celerbration on about 4 lanes now being open?

1st car was a Mk1 950 fiesta, 3 owners same family, less than 10K in miles! All original, never been in the rain. Was a donation or something for oxfam





SOLD for 1600

 

Thats a genuinely cool little piece of history

 

I need that grill with the badges for mine.....Wenny styleeee lol

 

Love it....looks mega tidy too

Some old boy near me has a fucking minta of an Allegro in a cream color. Think it has only done about 20k.

 

looks mintier than a glacier mint. And cooler.

 

old skool cool

 

Really?

Must be worth dozens!

 

Chip

In a strange sort of way it looks cool as fuck too.

 

just like yellow skodas

 

 

ANY old car in amazing nick looks good I reckon.

 

That is stunning and well worth the money IMO

Have you the details who bought it....

i want it

 

£1600!!!!!!!!

 

It looks well mint i would love that and look after it.

 

fooking nice that
went a bit cheep for how mint it is

 

ye i see there copying off me with the badges, got to be a steal at that price tho

 

and if it was an escort mk1 in that nick, would have made quadruple that...

why though?

 

dont forget its manheim so if it was 1600 sovs the indemnity fee
could feed thousands in africa for what they charge

 

i think the fee was 58quid, but i was just there, with a mate, not really having a clue, and eating bacon sanies

 

no f ing way does manheim charge £58 quid on £1600 if its private,
trade is nearly £100, they rob private punters blind.
and its 2 old german sisters who own it,they have more wedge
than oxfam would know what to do with

 

wow 10k miles what a find!

I'd be temted to buy a mint Mk1 if it was an S or a Supersport (I used to sell the old Fiesta's back in the day)

 

Slightly better nick than mine and my mates

 

Now then pet! Does look quality, it'd almost be a shame to rip it to peices and make a sleeper...



AA and RAC badges rock!

 

Its worth that all day long and more .....

 

Aah look at that, is it a 1.1S?
back in the day when headrests, centre console and rear wash wipe were extra's to get excited about, I even remember selling Mk1 Fiestas with plastic carpets and manual (ie use your foot) screen wash pumps, and no reverse lamps! basic or what

 

Now on eBay

Is that a 1978??

If so I want it please!!!!

Alex

 

I would've had that for another track car! Doh!

Looks mint and £1600 was a good price for that!

 

I have to quietly say i rather like that!

 

Stands to make a tidy profit if it sells !!!!!

 

At my local Manheim the charges on top for a 1600 winning bid will be between £150 - £200 so it'd probably cost near enough 1800 by the time they drive it out of there.

Then it'll need taxing

Tidy car though for its age!

 

well it sell?

 

Am sure someone will buy it as oldskool cars in these condition can only increase in value !!

Look at the prices of Mk1 and Mk2 escorts these days, one of them in this kind of condition would sell for an absolute fortune.

 

its a car dealer selling it, surprise surprise

seems like a chancer to me, but his other stuff has px's and swaps
available so you never know, he may swap your clapped out
mk3 feesta rust bucket.
i never had many mk1's, but had loads of mk2's
women loved the special edition mk2's like the olympus or the Dash
