Default What recession? £31k MK 1 Escort

Okay, it is a twin cam, but still, £31k on Ebay with 4 days to go - lots of bidders as well.

There's a 2nd one sitting at £22k as well.

2 door Escorts are absolutely rediculous now.. I come from the Classic Ford scene (have a Capri and a mk1 Fiesta), these 'cheaper' classic Fords are now going up in value, purely because people looking at buying an old Ford just cant afford to spend a years wages on an Escort..

It is getting silly, love em though

I had two mk1 escorts when I was younger. Always loved them from when I was a kid. I honestly believe the mk1 to be one of the best looking cars ever, I would get another but as you say the money people ask is silly. It would still be one of the first cars I'd buy if I won the lottery though. Love the mk2 rs2000 as well
