Alrite people got a dilema! I'm wantin the cossie life. Either a Escort cossie or a three door Wot should i do?

Wots the going rate for a rs500 in ok condition?been offerd one with approx 500bhp. has some rust on some panels and needs a good polish up.

 

depends on what type of cosworth you are after, what will you use it for where will you keep it, what you want to do with it etc

 

Both nice cars and both will hold there money !!!!!!

toss a coin

 

agreed! chose which ever your heart go towards most

 

Want a cosworth for the weekends really and good summer days. wont some power but not crazy and it to look good. i'll get an old work horse for everything else. got a garage so storage aint going to be a prob. dont want to get one tht i have to do sills, wings etc.. dont mind doing some stuff as im a mechanic . but been down that road. been there with a s2 before. was kinda set on a escort newer but also more expensive. whereas the 3dr's are cheaper but generally need more work.

 

Had a 3 door and 2wd saff`s, but i think id go for a escos as the 3 doors just seem soo old when your driving them, even compared to the 2wd saff cos`s , but for rwd action then the 3 door, but for sheer looks the escos ! h

but i think id have a saff over them all

and unless your stupid and buy a shed, your money should be safe enough

 

Whats your budget?

500's in a bad state do good ££ TBH, all mint cars, but whats your preferance?

 

Top of the list is Escort jst now. got bout 12.5k think i should be able to get a decent one for thank you think?

 

You'll get a £12K escort, thats all i say!

IMO i'd go for a MINT 3dr if thats all you got!

and a NO NO to the 500!

 

have to be escort 4 me

 

i'm jst imagining all the thing am gonna have to do if i went for the 500 so i think its out the window.

 

you might get a tatty rs500 for 12.5k but you looking at 20k-30k for a decent rs500.

have you thought about a normal 3 door rather than a rs500?, you'll get a very very nice one for 12.5k with a good spec and very clean
