Too many posts.. I need a life!!
I think I've lost you there Martin?
As I've NO idea how much a car like yours costs to build and what premium you'd add out of 'sentimental' reasons (for lack of a better word).
Your comment made me curious, that's all.

Fair enough, was thinking along those lines.
That's the thing: if you don't NEED to sell it and don't really WANT to sell it it's hard to put a price on things.
When I sold my last Harley it wasn't actually for sale but some bloke offered me a lot of money for it and kept pestering me for it lol
Sold it in the end and wasted the money lol

cant believe the length of time you have had it!,i remember it sitting in the corner of martins workshop when we were down with kev,it looked very sorry for itself at that time.
i cant believe its been ten years since we were down brum getting geared up to go to our first topspeed day at brunters!
getting back to the 3door lee,i know how hard it was for me getting rid of my car but i cant imagine having to make the decision to get rid of an icon
i tell you what tho you can take comfort from the fact that YOUR car(and it doesnt matter who owns it ,it will always be porkies 3door)will be popping up on the net for probably decades to come.

No camp rivalry on my side
I enjoyed every min of it and best bit was when lee said punch it to 8k because l was changing at 6-7k
Very well set up but then would not expect any diffrent coming from the Reyland camp
Top work and Top Car

Lee, your nuts for getting rid of it, such a nice car
Martin: Just out of interest mate, lets say Mr Rich walks into your garage and says "Build me an Escort identical to yours", how much would it cost him roughly?

Gt35 is all down to the engine spec and how its set up.
Think Mark had set my GT35 very well maybe my engine was far better for the GT35 shame lee did not get to drive mine on the GT35
When Yums back Lee will be offered a drive with the GT40 on it and then he will be to post just like me and what he thought
My old set up was on a T38 and l was thinking of going over to a GT30 but bought Ranj engine before that happened
