That escoss is defo the same one that Andy from north london tried to sell me about 2 years ago ,

Also ,,just so you know ( not trying to be funny ) motorsport escoss"s are available in other colours than white ,,sorry Tony


I had a malard green motorsport escoss ,,
All the white ones where motorsport trimmed shells that left ford incomplete , they also sold road going motorsports in many colours , these shells were fully seam sealerd and had a proper chassie number and proper colour plate like a lux model

Hope this helps

Paul

Does certainly look like its had its fair share of plates on it.... Why dont you prove EVERYONE who Is suspiscious WRONG by getting local traffic plod to fully inspect the car and give it a clean bill of LEGAL health, they can come and strip my car, I KNOW its 100% legit... Would you let them do the same?

I also was led to believe M/Sport shells only came in White, they and the M/sports which are about now have been a white shell painted..???...

Paul no need to be mate

Now I think back, there were road going "motorsport" versions made yes.

But they all had ID like you said, only the white trimmed shell was sold with no ID hense my question.


This has obviously been running round as a cloned car and now it's being sold it can no longer do that. Now it isn't for sale anymore so I guess the owner will have to "buy" an ID from a trader like he keeps telling others to do. Probably originally too scared of it getting put on a Q plate if it was done back then through DVLA.

So why isn't yours !!!

If this car is genuine you are doing a very good job of making it seem the opposite ! all by yourself

just to clarify one other little point,you could buy a motorsport shell from ford,either 3 door,saff,or escort.with a factory sunroof.

part number for this shell is 9095585

why give the guy such a hard time?
i cannot imagine him buying the world rally car parts off me that he wanted if he isnt going to use them.

its not ilegal to sell a body shell with id and transfering all the bits over in to a new body shell and id as long as the new shell dont have id stamped into it so it will be a re shell

no mates thats bollocks

its only allowed if its a BRAND NEW SHELL and theres other parts of the car carried over with it

using a second hand shell with no numbers is still a ringer, when it gets inspected ya would have to prove with a invoice that its a new shell, if ya cant its a q plate,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, actually i think there now taken to the scrap yard in the sky

btw i dont doubt abs as having a crystal blue saph cossie,,,,,,,,,,, ive seen it

Lol in 25 years we have seen them all and heard all the bullshit excuses .


Best one that sticks in my mind is esc cossie, was imaculate on an q plate, story was, from the owner right off form belgum and reshelled ,why he wanted to tell us this at the time must have been guilt we never asked he was only in for a bolt on 360 bhp conversion.
It was obvious when fitting the necessary parts that the car was a factory built m reg car for the uk market.Close examination whilst fitting the exhaust revealed that some one had gone to a serious amount of trouble to replace the floor pan with a new one even down to the number of spot welds,every other part on the car was original factory fitted obviously the engine numbers had worn off in the british climate lol.

I don't think anyone who has posted is upset ,it is your explanations for your car that no one asked for that makes yours seem very questionable.

, that made me spit me coke out


abs just means ya cant identify what the orginal year was and if the car is mostly the reg its claiming to be

dont mean its nicked but as soon as ya see a bmw M3 on a q plate tell me that ya honestly look at it and think its a rebuilt car from a second hand shell or a ex works shell


as i look and say,,,,,,,,,,,,,RINGER

Most of what you are calling 'grief' has been brought onto yourself by the garbage you posted in the Ebay description! I couldn't give a fook about this car but i'll still wager you a grand that shell isn't a motorsport shell and has been registered as an Escort Cosworth at some stage in its life

Tim of course you are right and that number would be on the VIN plate attached to the shell that this car doesn't seem to have!
As for him buying parts from you if he was going to use them on this car then it wouldn't be for sale as is would it?

Prove it!
And if its never been registered why was it being used by North London RS Spares with a reg plate on it????
As for it never going on a Q! If you want to put that car on the road 'legaly' then that isn't for you to decide. That is the jurisdiction of the DVLA

this is spadge, all he does is sell things when hes bored, hes never had the chance to be in that position due to him always selling things


this is the guy that at the pts rolling road shoot out removed his front bumper to get it on the rollers and said " will take offers "
