garycox Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouseflakes Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 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...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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torsten2001 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 No but I was probably nodding off as my 760 Turbo Intercooler is so frightningly thirsty unless you do 55mph, you more than likely zig zaged past me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 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... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/D-1986-NISSAN-BLU ... 0332325719 "Remember- The car you see here and might buy tomorrow is the car that somebody saw yesterday and might buy today" Indeed.
