Unfortunatley this was for sale back in Feb 1971
Just looking through some old copies of Autosport and spotted this advert.
If I could go back in time i'd buy pretty much everything in there.

Rich

 

Is it still for sale?

 

tel number 658

 

Prob stick a 0 on the end of that for todays price!? Wonder if its still about?!

 

That mini was cheap 750 be worth a bit now bet the escorts bean cans

 

For a MK1 RS1600?! And the rest!!!

If a genuine, low mileage, as new, original RS1600 came up for sale today, you'd be looking at more like £60k, maybe a lot more...

 

I knew someone would say that... Doh!
I remembered seeing a '69 Rally prepped Twink for 35k a while ago... Can't remember the full ins an outs of RS1600's, that would be the Lotus lump still, or BDA by 1970? Been about 20 years since a last read 'The Works Escorts'! Lol

 

Thank god you're a gold member or the mods would have deleted it...

 

Those were the days, had a look through a copy of ccc from '97, 2 door mk2, 2.0 pinto, 5 speed box, bilsteins etc for 1500 quid, and a mk2 lotus cortina for 2400. If onlyy I knew back then

 

what your forgetting is you could buy a 3 bedroomed house for 3.5 k back then..well my parents did lol

doesn't sound too cheap now does it lol
