Yeah, good point about the question of why it was removed. Wasn't aware another could be made up cheaply though, just assumed it would be impossible either physically or financially. It'd be a massive shame if it got weighed in or something, be nice to get it back useable with as much original gear as possible.

 

Is there enough Sherpa love on here for as AS crowd fund?

Contrary to the English, the Austrians still remember what woeful pieces of shit they are.

Spot on, the only ones remotely interesting were the higher powered RS ones which still weren't that quick at the time. 1100 and 1300 models-the most common-were no better and in some cases inferior to the competition. I'm totally bewildered why these are worth so much.

I was just about to say this is really cheap for one of these, and also appealingly brown.  But I've now realised it's another scam.

 

Have a pic/link anyway.

Scam because implausibly cheap and seller has zero feedback?  Invites contact outside eBay?  What else am I missing?

 

EDIT:  DVLA says MoT expired last June.

But isn't the mk1 escort one of those where more RS models now exist than were built in the first place

The price is about 25% of what is usual these days too.

 

Sorry didn't take in the implausibly cheap bit!

That 5 is a brilliant find, Martin. What a lovely car.
