my dad sent me this, I think mint ones go for more than 60k now if you consider lotus corvinas can be around 100K

FORD RS MAD

iTrader: (1)

Nice find, makes my Mk2 Sport sound cheap

gjh

66k will be my guess.

It looks a bit rough imo.

burnzy

60k!!!

What sort of price are good condition original mk1 rs2000's going for now?

Cos500

As much as I love em I'd rather drive a vectra for the rest of my life than pay that for an escort

Jec1969

Worth lots of money but what a shit advert!!

st220kyle

Fuck that.

gjh

In the 30s by the looks of things, an RS1600 is more again.

gjh

Don't let people catch you saying that on this forum

Cos500

Alright maybe the vectra is too good, a zafira then : )

It's Czech Mate

Very rare example still in original untouched order, that car will be snapped up and restored to within an inch of its life.

Would have fetched its best price in a classic auction though, buyers love them in that condition and pay way over the odds at the moment.

gjh

Brilliant!

Have a look at what a barn find condition car can fetch at auction, I've seen examples where they go for more than the value of a restored one. Its mad!

its all about the hype with these cars as its not worth anywhere near 30k but with people overvaluing them from various owners clubs its drives prices up to tourist levels, do I like the car ? = yes, would I pay 30k for it ? = hell no, not as long as I have a hole in my arse

cossiestu

Noooo!! Trust me,you don't want to drive one of those!! It'll only catch fire on you...

It's amazing what sort of prices old fords go for these days!

It's Czech Mate

Yes they are. Absolutely

It's Czech Mate

Supply and demand

And classic Motorsport

Nothing to do with owners clubs

You got to remember these arn't just an escort these sort of cars are true collectors items that high end collectors with a vast collections of exotica will pay a premium to own, whether they pay 60,70 or 100k they don't need to care the prized asset is there's
out of 109 built how many are for sale and available now?
1 or 2 if that at a guess


glenn as for it looking rough its 40 year old! and in very nice condition for something that hasn't been restored recently, that would be an easy restoration for a company specialising in restoring escorts theres quite a few of them and I bet there order books are bulging..

Sadly with these cars they are starting to not get used which is a a a shame imo.

200k fook me lol.

xr2john

It just goes to show there is a buyer for everything but 200k for that land rover my god ��

gjh

Ye its a lot of cash!

Cos500

I love landrovers and owned many, but that is nothing more than it looks, without its original Diesel engine also that is £500 worth if that.

51k now where will it end

STEVEST24

I'm not surprised, sold my Mum's old Escort Mk2 8 years ago and got alot for that and that was a basic Popular model, drum brakes all round! It was in good condition with years MOT, and to think I nearly sold it for scrap money, stupid boy. When I eBay it, the bids went very high, surprised me and the one guy who could be bothered to actually come and see it, won it!

Luckily it was a 2 door and undersealed from new, needed work, but was solid.

eagie

Wouldn't be surprised if it ends early and we don't find out how much it goes for

When they were thre years old they were a £2495 car..
Got magazines with them in for sale, the same mags have 3 year old Granada's for more dough .

JasonPD

I was looking at this on eBay earlier today, pretty crazy prices but if there aren't any other available and you want one then you'll pay the price. I do hope it doesn't turn in to one of these cars that sells high but gets re listed every week for months on end (like all the bloody saffs right now). Just a shame the pictures are a bit crap as you can't really see it well from those shots..

nick46

Looks like this is what's happened!

iTrader: (1)

Sssssshhhhhhooooocccck.

eagie

Knew it would

Thrustyjust

Strange add. No front end photo, newish looking relay in the front. Private bidder biding up, maybe to make a price............

gjh

Maybe he's taken an offer for it?


Wouldn't be surprised if it was re listed next week mind.
