They are still about

[RUDDY]

Had a chat with a lad this morning, just by chance mentions he knows someone with an old Escort in his shed, taken apart years ago and now wants rid of it. I asked him what sort of Escort and he says its a MK2 Mexico. ..........

Now you know how these stories go, but hang on, he gives me the lads phone number as well

Well it would be wrong of me not to give it a ring so 15 minutes later I am off the phone and on my way to view said car only 1/2 hours drive away.

Did I mention it was a yellow MK2 Mexico

So I arrive at the place and lad disappears into a shed with me following.

Sure enough its Escort shaped.















So now you've seen the good bits ...........

How about the rest

..............

Oh it is genuine Mex, has original VIN plate and build plate in place.

I also know of one away up here. It is a red mk2 rs2000. It is owned by 2 brothers and it just sits in the shed surrounded by tyres. (they have a tyre business). It apparently has quite a low mileage totally original etc etc. There have been guys offered in excess of 5 grand for the car but they refuse to sell it as it was their mothers car from new and they are keeping it for sentiment.
Fair enough i suppose

I got offered a midnight blue RS2 custom the other day . Been stored for years (rotten then ) and the lady has spit with her husband and wants his car gone . Sounds like grief so i didn't bother looking .

[RSi]

Interesting, in the best colour too.

Just realised I never posted the exterior shots, they have ruined this car
