viking Posted October 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 well the plot thickens, as well as ebay i had it on a couple of classic car sales websites, couldnt remember 1 and didnt know how to delete on the other, so now and again i get an email about it, a week ago a bloke from london emailed me about it, he was blown away with it and was gutted when i said id sold it, phone rings tonight and its the same bloke asking if he can ask a few questions about it, i thought it strange but said ok, after about the 15th question i said you do realise its no longer for sale mate, he said yes i know you sold it, but its now back up for sale on ebay, so after a 30 min chat about it we parted ways, i looked on ebay and there it is, for sale in ilkley, so i text the bloke i sold it to and asked if he had *** fed up with it already or if he had bought it to sell on, he said he bought it to sell on really, he had some company in ilkley sell it for him, he said they advertised it for £22,000, sold it for £20,000 and the bloke i sold it to got £18,750 for it, and the bloke who called me was the new owner just running a few checks before he parted with his cash, so it will be off down to london shortly so you london boys keep an eye out, or should i say mince pies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 (edited) Lad who shoots with me - Mark - his father is also a good friend - had a Cosworth Escort 1995. Had about 60k miles on it, in aubergine. Mark had it for about six years and eventually sold it for around £15k. It has appeared fairly regularly on Ebay - last time the asking price was around £37k. Despite apparently changing hands about six times, the number of previous owners does not seem to be increasing at the same rate.

viking Posted October 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 i was looking at buying one of these years ago, they were going for about the £15k mark then, decided against it, next time i looked they were asking £30k+ for them, wish id of bought one now, the bloke who used to cut my hair years ago had one only drove it now and again, cant remember the full ins and outs of it but he sold it for about £20K more than he paid as in the 6 years he had it he had done 3000 miles in it and sold it with about 25,000 miles on the clock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
