Well this is my latest purchase, not content with Vinny's bootless beige and a shell Ive got half way though ive added another to the fleet.An ebay purchase at £2400
, I was surprised to be greated with bundles of receipts and mots all presented in a folder.The owner had even wrote me a 4 page letter telling me all the cars funny querks(sticky bonnet cable, 3 pumps of the trottle to start her,blah blah).Yes shes an mot failure but three little plates is all, the strut tops have been plated over but all the rest of the car is untouched. Mind you at 90,000 miles hasnt seen alot of action, the previous owner had had it for three years and done 800 miles in it, the guy before him owned her since 1989, with two owners before him.The guys wife was moaning he had just had the wheels diamond cut and new boots, then just decided to sell her as he didnt mind driving it but wasn't interested in the maintance side of the escort.Plans are just to use it for the summer and have a general tidy up new rear arches, dings and dangs removed, inners and a respray.
Engine wise she purred all the way back from Maidstone no probs
Cheers Graeme
