Aren't some of these held back from when they were built and only recently got registered.

I think there was a white 3 door cossie i read about a few years ago that was registered on a Y plate.

correct, there were some early 96 ones registered on P plates, but these were also built prior to the end of 95 and just not registered.

the last ever built/to come off the line didnt actually make it to the customer .... my sister was in charge of the delievery and it caught light as it was being put onto the transporter. It was crushed after that

so dont believe anyone that says they have the very last cosworth ever made (it never made it to registration tho!)

Looking through those 3 Autotrader pages, there aren't half some overpriced looking Escorts about! None of them (the real EsCos's not replicas) under 10 years old, none of them under £10K, yep we know this isn't exactly "news" but fuck me it bears some thinking about.
