read a thread earlyer and it reminded me of this

https://passionford.com/forum/4577708-post427.html

at the time the guy was not interested in selling but do you think its worth knocking again?

what would you say shes worth considering shes been sitting for a few years?

Why do some people just let cars like this sit rusting away. Some people just wont sell them. Go and ask the owner again i would.

always worth a knock - circumstances may have changed since you last chapped.

Good luck

because it may be of value to him, sentimental or just waiting to get on with the 'project'

ok well since the sierra apers to be gone its got me rite in the mood for a rep car as i could never afford a real cozzy.

so i took a mate to look at a mk5 h reg 3 dr white escort thats been sat since last october.

mot failier sheet says mostly miner problems ,the worst things are possable head gasget,clutch sliping and ecsesive corosion nere side and offside rear surspension mounts.

theres a little bit of bubbling on the rear arches but nothing major.
apart from that it looks quiet clean underneath.

the guy wants scrap value for it whitch is £110.00

but what would you guys pay?
