100% agree went and looked at a 9k motorsport shell on a 1992 k plate was a dog bulk head was leaking in water lower spoiler had bubbles all over it in the paint tops of the boot hinges were starting to show signs of rust as were the lowers of the doors and grill had clips broken off and was wedged in had a nice set of 18" o.z super t-s and was diamond white was very basic inside apart from it had been treated to leather which was in good con, didnt have electric windows or a sunroof though and i just didnt trust it for 9k and the bloke wouldnt shift at all on price
that seems a very minor list of issues for a 9k escos!
Pete, max offered me 15k with the centrelocks and to be fair iwas tempted but it wasn't for sale, I value that car at 12-13k tops on standard wheels. Still do now but going on escort prices I should have valued it at about 16-17k lol
many turbos run a lot of boost,probably more than they should,they won't last forever Pete.
Dave, if it does ever shit itself i,ll get a T34.48 and just run it around 27-28psi peak, Karl said that,ll be fine even with the 4x4 cooler AND that turbo should NEVER die then.... hopefully..
Saying all this though Dave, Twellsie made 326/350 on his 4x4 saff running the Gunship on a T3..... that,s good torque that...
