I like that AA Escort, didn't British Telecom have them too?Strangely, I was thinking only yesterday that if there's any left it'd be great to get one of the old yellow BT estates, preferably a mid 80's Sierra with Serck-fonted pressed steel number plates...Were they some sort of mega-pov spec edition? I've never really worked out what they would have been used for, why have a Sierra (or Escort) estate instead of an Escort van?

When my uncle left BT he bought his BT-liveried (Chrysler) Avenger estate. It's the only privately owned one I recall seeing. T'was nice.

Would be a change from a Scimitar or Gilbern,

99% certain I saw this being trailered east on the M4 this morning whilst we were headed west.

 

Was being tugged in convoy with a really ropey A55 :)

Amazingly I saw this on the back of a flatbed Tranny heading East as I was heading West on the M4 in a Volvo 760 Estate, what were you in Pog? Never saw the A55 though!

Did you spy a peppermint green ultra-poverty spec Polo being driven by a bearded fool with no regard for (a) lane discipline (B) the speed limit © the inherent limitations of such an odious little car (d) the passenger's mental well-being?That was us!

Shown here not so much for the car (£275 BIN with a little T&T, makes the £295 I paid for mine with better spec, lower miles and much more T&T seem rather good value) but the wise words contained in his listing...

"Remember- The car you see here and might buy tomorrow is the car that somebody saw yesterday and might buy today"

 

Indeed.

I really fancy that. What's this about though:

Gearbox 4 SPEED MANUAL & 4 SPEED REVERSE

like the Bond Minicar where you pulled the splitpin and roted the whole wheel/engine assembly for reverse is it?

I think on these you just start the engine in the opposite direction to go backwards. I think it's only the 125cc versions and upwards that got a proper reverse gear.
