There's a whole load of roofs collapsing under snow up here this year - normally the wind blows the snow off before the weight gets too much but this time there's been loads of snow coming down for ages with little or no wind to clear it so it just keeps piling up and up until something lets go.
Memo to self - never park ander the apex!

There's a very good reason for them being rare in that colour - who in their right mind would order their new car in that colour?
At least when it's second hand, you can say you bought on condition and this was the best available despite the colour!!!

So does the Mk1 although having the roof fall on it has improved it's looks tenfold.

This is a guy from Inverness, has a mahoosive collection of Mk1 and 2 Escorts !
Real shame.
Not having much luck as it was his new Focus RS that had pics posted up here a few month ago, the one that had the windows smashed and wheels stolen a few days before he was due to collect it from the dealer !

pffft Fez looks like a 348, fairly tatty one at that so won't be worth much more than the Escorts!

Looks like a fake Ferrari to me???
Looks like a Replica 348.
The pop-up headlights are far too short, the Ferrari Decal looks in the wrong place, the wipers look wrong, the bumper looks ill-fitting and wing mirrors don't look like Ferrari ones.
