HFM?  I thought the only reason people bought 4 doors and LHD was because they can’t afford what they really want. £12000 is mental for what will always be not quite the car of your dreams.  And no, we didn’t get 1100 GL’s in the civilised World. But then Jonny Foreigners could get 1100 Cortina's too, in some markets due to punitive tax systems. 

I get why people want Ford RS and Cosworth models but I just don’t understand why anyone would pay silly money for a bog standard Escort. I’ve seen rhd ones for around £20k. Ridiculous.

Escorts go down well in the rally world so they are silly money - esp. Mark 1 stuff. I don't get why people want to pay loads for the RS/XR2/XR3 types though - I guess there's an 'investment' perception there or, maybe, the 'retro' ponzi schemes?

That's a time warp version of mine (1994) only difference is I had full vinyl seats (oooh luvverly in the heat).
He's got it listed with a BIN of £2,500 too?

Good luck!

It’s a pity their reputation is not better.  
 

I so want a Clubman to turn into a Clubvan but I hear too many horror stories. 

That one's got the 1.6HDi in it which is (imho) the best engine for the R55 Clubman (Euro 4 Clubman Diesel should be the 1560cc DV6, Euro 5 is the 1598cc BMW Diesel)
The autobox I have no clue about other that it bumps the car tax up from £20 to £225 and pulls the mpg down a bit.

£4,500 is also flying a bit of a kite. Ours is the same age as that one with more miles and I reckon I'd be pushed to get £1,500 if I was selling it.

£500/best offer buys you this 3 door mingebag special. Probably never ventured far from new looking at the reg number.

You know that brown on brown 4 door 1300GL for £12k ?
well, here’s one with the steering wheel in the right place  complete with some bits you could sell if you were a miserable Autoshite type and desperately wanted 155 tyres on 4. 1/2” wheels.
