Ikea Deltorf's are popular, all glass with the space for lots of shelves.

I moved in with my Mrs and spotted a gap in the sitting room. Seeing as she said yes I went to Ikea that night before she could change her mind lol

I got free reign in the sitting room, she got it in the kitchen. Rest of the house we compromised on. Well... I got a TV in the bedroom.

Thanks,
Yes Jason is definitely the most die hard ford model collector out there. what an amazing collection and the money they must be worth must be 5 digits.

I would think so! A cosworth model can be worth £100 quite easily, as can an escort so it must be quite a bit!

Thanks guys, been collecting for many years now.
I remember when Mk1 & MK2 Escorts were £20 each, now £60 upwards.
Last valuation was eye opening to say the least
