Whats your budget mate?

 

15k and no more infact id like to buy and isure it for 15k

 

i think you should get a good ecos for this sort of money, any color your after? i might know of a man selling a totally mint mallard green one with a new 400bhp engine the car has just 23,000 miles on it before this engine went in in last few weeks, i can find out for you if interested, body work wise, sills, battery tray, if possible when going to look at one take somebody with you who know's the cosworths it could save you big money in the long run, cheers hugh

 

any pics matewant a aubergene one

 

hi mate, no pics as of yet can try and get some if i can get through to him tomora but this car is super mint, lol mine is dark aubergine with cream leather and 18inch Rl7's lov that color in them its a rare color too, i did see a dark aubergine one on pistonheads with good spec for around £15,000 maybe you could get him down a couple of pound, but as i said earlier make a point of taking somone who knows theses cars with you when going to look don't get caught out with some heap that looks good just, hugh

 

i always wanted a motorsport one, ended up stumbuling across a 42k mile one for 13k , but turbo seals have went after 600miles of ownership



and when i got the chasis number checked out found out it was built by Karmann original car not built up from pieces

 

Vvv nice looking motor mate well jealous

 

Car,insurance and change for 15k

No mate car and insurence no change il find a decent example for that money especialy in readies

 

You should easily get a really clean one and insure it for that money mate, theres quite a few out there so dont rush into anything, you should be looking at stage 3 with 60k+ or mildly tuned with a few less miles on, really low miles and you are looking at 16k+.
Thats just my opinion though so its just a rough guideline.

Dont go anywhere near this though whatever you do. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ESCORT-COSWORT...item27ac9ce1b3

 

cheers mate ur rite there is a gud choice for that money some people think not keep thinking what kinda brand new car i could get but the choice is limited and the residual loss is to much atleast with an escos the value wont drop drastically if not theyl only go up

 

hi m8 any joy with those pictures of the mallard
