Just got the call! pick it up at 6:15 tomorrow!
All the money has gone through, so tomorrow im off to pick up my first escort cosworth! cannot wait, wanted one since i was 12 after my dad bought me a tamiya michelin pilot escort cosworth rc car!
The guy only lives 5mins round the corner so no travelling needed, dam im already getting realy excited! doubt that ill sleep tonight!<---- sad!
As soon as i started my new job last year i saw this escort at work, and thought one day that it would be mine, so back in march i emailed Martyn at work and said if he ever thought of selling it could i have first refusal!, then got the message back that he was looking to sell in the next 12 months and to pop up on nights and take a look!
so 7 months later its now mine! a nice 40k diamond white escort
It has a full extensive history, one owner even kept a diary of every time he drove it/fuelled it and washed it! also has every old owners name and reason for selling! 2 of them were due to divorce!
will get some pics up 2moro night i hope!

Got it , and old owner just poped round with the standard steering wheel, tape/cd unit, lights, some carbon fibre hockey sticks and bib etc etc!
sorry for the phone pictures, but after i took it for a drive its was dark! should have tidyed the garage as it was bigger than i thought it would be!
one from the other day when i was viewing it!
think the dials maybe on the way out as they seem blotchy in places?
