Default My mate Bens Minter
Here are some pics I took today of my mate Bens MINT escort cossie
first time it's been out for 3 years
lives in an oxgen tent like michael jackson
done very few miles and it's not got a speck of dirt underneath either

also the sapphire is his, unmolested apart from the wheels

what do you think?
cheers

By the way
the owner of those cars is a serious cash buyer looking for
a MINT Moonstone 3-dr standard or near standard
so if you or someone you know is selling please get in touch...
cheers

And by the way my mate Ben is anxious to point out that the man in the photos is not him
and I am anxious to do likewise

I didnt belive this car actually existed, but proof are in the pics. Guess i will have to stop taking the piss about Ben lying about owning an Escos now.

Saph is in superb condition aswell, would love to see the Escos out atleast once this year though.
