Default Imp Escos N880 A**

Anyone know whose it is? Dave and I were driving behind it last night down Hempstead Road in Watford.

Couldn't have mistaken it for mine though, cos as well as the plate it was mint... even the 'splash back' rectangle at the back!

Sorry, Imperial Blue Escort Cosworth.

Ya know, if you drive an Escort about in the rain, you get that perfectly rectangular dirt mark around the back plate..or is that just me?

Default N880 AHL

Sorry to bother you pal,

Looking back at your previous threads, I noticed that in October last year you mentioned a Imperial Blue Escort Cosworth (N880 AHL) Apparently you were driving behind it or something like that ?

Well as fortune has it, I have just bought this car, and I am picking it up on Monday of next week.

Did you ever find out anything about it after ??

Did you buy it from round Watford way? or was he just passing through on the day we saw it?

nope. i couldnt care if a car has had a million owners... its all about the car really. if its a good one and has been looked after, then number of owners wouldnt really be a factor

Well the guy tells me that his local ford dealership have previously loaned the car off him for show days, corporate days, etc etc so it does sound and look very promising.

One little thing, the clock (as in time) doesn't work. How hard would it be to pick one of these units up ?

from what we saw driving behind it, it did look like a well looked after example, but that is only from a quick glance from inside my car.

I doubt a clock will cause you too many problems. you can always stick something else in there anyway. i wouldnt let a faulty clock sway your decision lol
