Just thinking back to Mk2 RS2000 I saw in a yard about 5 years ago.Looked mint but needed a windscreen and some welding on the sills for the MOT but I turned it down for £500 I had a Mk1 in bits at the time so couldnt afford it .How much would it be worth now?

my friend had a mk1 escort on his driveway with a stage 3 pinto tricked up suspension and mex wings it was solid and just needed putting back together and a paint job

 

he sold it to the guy i got my 2 door off for £350 2 years ago so i could probably get it quite cheap if i tried

1967 Morris Cooper 998 In grey with burgundy leather interior. Rust free and complete. Needed stripping, cleaning and rebuilding.

 

£80

 

 

Didn't get it 'cos I listened to an earbashing from my old dear about abandoned minis on her drive (courtesy of older brothers) Only realised my error when it had been sold to someone else.

e type jag for #3500 - months later some geezer sold it for 40k

Unfortunately opposite way round for me. Tend to buy them and then think "Why did I do that" and then spend the next 6 months trying to sell them for less!!!!!!!!! Never was great at buying and selling cars.

Anyone interested in an old school 911 SC ?

[DarrenM]

My mates looking for a 911, can you PM me some details

 

Also I could have bought an AC Aceca (AC ACE with a roof) 2 years ago for £3750 but I would only go to £3500
