Its about time people faced facts that a ford escort aint worth 33k, even if it only has 1 mile on the clock. Its starting to piss me off a tad these unrealistic prices people ask for cars especially in the rs range.

Worth what someone is willing to pay i guess, which so far isnt anywhere near what he is asking or he wouldnt still have it!

Tis only worth what someone is willing to pay, and depending on how it has been stored, that fact it's only done 300 miles shouldn't put people off.

There was a couple of months ago on Ebay, a 1982 Mk5 Cortina, unregistered with only 82 miles on the clock!!!! been in a Ford showroom all it's life, and it made £8k, do you think the new owner would have been worried about that?
