I've decided to get a focus rs instead. I pick it up Saturday. There's just too many question marks against the car. I ran a check on the DVLA mot section and it comes back unrecognised despite seeing a pic of the log book.
It's registered in Ireland, the shells legit but the numbers arn't, the engine doesn't have any numbers, no Ford receipt for new block, only a receipt for the engine rebuild.
The DVLA, police and Vosa are just not interested in the car despite all this. Vosa told me to contact the police, the police told me to contact the DVLA, the DVLA are as helpful as ever as you can imagine.
Very frustrating to be honest as the car could be legit in the eyes of the law and someone could get a very good buy but despite spending an awful long time looking into it all I'm still no further.
Cheers

Buy genuine, £8500 on a dodgy history car is well OTT in my eyes.
You will have to scratch that Escort Cosworth itch one day, trust me. It will come backj
