Does anyone know who owns Jeremy Clarksons old Escort ?

 

a pal of mine does, he brings it to passionfords birthday bash each year at the ace cafe

 

Fella who's a member of the Middlesex RSOC

 

Anyone know if he wants to sell it ?

 

he has had many offers over the years to sell and turned them all down, he also owns some other very nice rare fords too so any offer would need extreme top money to make him even bat a eyelid

 

If i recall he's turned down more offers on it than you've had hot dinners mate

 

No worries ... Thought Ide ask before I go buy my next big toy 👍

 

reckon it would fetch north of 20k tbh even if you could temp mark to sell it

 

to be fair i would have paid more than that

 

I will give him a ring later and mention this thread to him as he does not really do forums etc as he a busy chap

 

 

just spoke to him andy and have made him aware of this thread

 

20k plus for a car a gangly mouthy twat used to own off the tv ffsk this worlds going mad

 

A silly question but does the owner of the escos have any pics or proof JC owned it. Im just curious thats all.

 

Plenty of photos and video footage. It's very well known

he does Glenn plenty, and who could forget the top gear buttertub test drive in it where he states its his own car



thats the way it goes Jay

 

Thats good enough evidence isnt it steve l0l. I was wondering if the owner had a copy of a V5 with JCs name on it.

 

Cheers bud , see what happens

 

I would have fuck all interest lol imo it should devalue it lol

Some one I know paid Ł278k for emerson fittipaldi's 68 corvette stingray race car now the amusing part is there are a few of these going around in the same condition ect but worth 80k it does make me laugh how a fool and his money can easily be parted lol

 

as with anything Jay beauty is in the eye of the beholder, marks other fords tick more boxes for me tbh like the one used in the filming of the mk1 escort episode of for the love of cars featuring philip glenister

 

So according to some im well known and a cunt it has been mentioned so does this mean my saff is worth a shit load of cash ??

 

Just had an escos in at work with a genuine 7000 miles on it. Bloke paid 31k for it.

 

Thats cool Brian.. I take it the escos wont be getting used much.

 

Shows only he said. Bought it from Southampton. All bog standard.including service book with only 3 stamps in it. Last service before we did it was done by power engineering in 2003 with 4000 miles on it.

 

Hi Andy,
I've had a think about it and to be honest I'm going to hang onto it. Thanks for your interest though.

Cheers, Mark.

 

Are you're saying you'd give it away if you owned it???

 

I did think that would be your answer Mark

 

Hi, I've got loads of paperwork, including Clarksons business card and his signature on the Ford Press Garage release papers when took possession of it.

Cheers, Mark.

 

Thanks for the heads up Steve!

 

Not all mark just didnt think it would be worth so much

 

no problem Mark

 

no problem worth an ask

 

Off topic Bryan, but did you used to have a cav turbo?

Jay

 

I did indeed. Blue,phase 3.5 and nitrous. Was a handfull to say the least. L871kmo I think.

 

Very cool matey. Thanks for that.

 

Ha ha thought so, I used to have k704 LMV (k18 JAE) or smokegreyturbo on ctor
I think it's still on the style selector under grey ones on the ctor home page.

I remember your car well

Jay

 

20K!

Damnnnn, I knew I should have asked for more than 11k for it back in 2007!

 

I would imagine it is worth much more than 20k now.

 

cant see him selling it for at least another 10 or more years
