this was at £3600 at a durham based dealer last week, IIRC. It didnt have plates fitted but the reg was in the ad. 

Makes sense - it's with Steve Howey who is a classic dealer now.

can someone have a word please.....

DVLA and MOT Details do not match.

It appears that the MOT details below are not for the vehicle above.

This MOT is for a General Motors but the DVLA data above corresponds to a Chevrolet Gmc.

This is most likely due to a registration plate change being in progress. Check back tomorrow to see if the MOT details have been correctly updated by the DVSA.

I loathe the (fake) patina / rusty look.
It doesn’t seem funny or clever to anyone who has had their cars ruined by genuine rust.  
Back in the day Mrs A. and her then Mr.  put every penny they had into a V reg Cortina only to see it rot away to scrap well before it was ten years old. The front wings and the door skins were just flapping in the wind at the end.  Their’s was a base 4 door. (Did UK get any 2 door mk 4s?)

Despite the rat-look, the dice and the wanky roofrack, that Taunus does look cool.  Somehow.

It's a trend that doesn't want to die isn't it? I remember Fast Ford magazine (or similar) talking about rat look Escorts in South London as long as 20(?) years ago.

Yes mk4/5 2dr base/L hard to find, LHD taunus are worthless in the UK as they require bulkhead/scuttle swap to make them rhd & there are enough cortinas left to find what you want.

European taunus was avl in most mech/trim specs, several times I've considered finding a 2 Dr "S" or Ghia & converting it to rhd but you need a doner for the bulkhead/scuttle, dash all the heater ducting etc , a rack & loom.

Would be a full week's work even for someone like me with 40 years experience of these.
