Default Escos Roll Cage / xmas climbing frame for the kids?

Gauging interest, and to establish what its worth.

yes it is for sale.


6 point Safety Devices roll cage, fully powdercoated in Tungsten grey and looks stunning.

Does fit with full interior, initially had it in my car like that with the leather a couple of years ago.
only thing required to do is to trim the back edge of the rear cards at the wheel arch, but even this is hidden behind the seats, would even sell my pre-trimmed rear cards so you could keep your origonals aswell.

Bolt in cage with all the floor plates and under floor supports, all nuts/bolts washers etc.

has door bars, roof bar, removable diagaonal etc.

Would like to see £550 for it, and id throw the cards in aswell if it went for that.


Sound a fair price??

Ben, i have no idea what it weighs mate, its certainly not heavy atall tho.

interested? did text you earlier to let you know matey

reason is im having a full custom cage fabricated by Danny B just into the new year, fixed/webbed to all the pilars and shapped properly behind the dash etc, all wrap around bars behind the seats and a nice cross in the rear.

lets hope its looks as good as its purpose


Marshall, unsure mate, not spoken to Martin for a week or 2 now, will make contact during the week but cant see it being far off if it isnt finished yet

Richie, you were right mate - Danny was spot on and had no quibles over spending an hour chatting to me and showing me several options on what we could do.

Neil, there may be a que but i still have a long way to go, i keep moving my own goalposts!!

Kelv if you had put that up for sale 6 months ago i would have snapped it off you.

£550 is a very good price for a SD cage

small problem of me already having welded most of my cage in now, reckon that adding a bolt in cage as well would be overkill

Doing well up here Michael, up here until Xmas eve now

i agree with Danny's work, dont think ill have anything to complain about, and its now officially booked in for the 16th Feb, so not so long away in reality, gives me a little time to get on with alot else on the car and ignore the inside.



As for the cage, anyone??
