Escort Cosworth Itch That needs scratched!!

[seanyboy]

Hi guys,

im quite new on the forum but loved the escos since i first seen one back in 1992, i had a couple of Fiesta turbos over the years and a nice Series 2 escort but never ever had the funds for an escort but now im contemplating getting one, i already have an RS that i dont use and wondering if i need a escos to be the same, i would be looking for a low miler/owner genuine car, not sure modified or standard!!
Whats your thoughts??

My thought is until you get one it will always be in your head, there's lots of cars I wanted and kept thinking about until I finally got them, even if you don't keep it long you can still say you owned one, but tbh if you buy one you won't want anything else, there's nothing else that has so much presence on the road, and gets upmost respect from other road users

Go on.....get one

go for it but then I'm biased

buy on history and condition and the bigger the budget the better

[seanyboy]

Yeah i dont think the urge is gonna go away but you lot are biased!! lol i think i know of a pretty good one but not sure if its up for sale, the guys had it alot of years, im scared to make the call as if he is selling it i would need to buy it

[Ben Purnell]

Well it's always worth the ask

I wouldn't part with mine, the 8 years have gone quick but the smile has never gone

That's exactly how I ended up with mine lol. Car wasn't for sale, but I knew it was a good one, made the phone call and hey presto the rest is history

I'm glad I made he call.

[broome]

if you go on there website it says they spend 3 days detailing a car before it leaves so they might do the engine bay

You would have thought they would have done this before advertising? I have seen a few nice ones sell on ph around november time with nice mods, higher miles but probably more in my budget.
