Gareth Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 M8 thats well poo Don't give up tho, there's always one kickin around. Plus with your track record the next one you'll find will be cheap too
Alan G Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 Why not have a look at this.... Seems alot for the price! http://www.turbosport.co.uk/showthread.php?t=111215
Guest lagerlout Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 just phoned him its advertised at the wrong price wants £3500 -£4000.
Cookie Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 just phoned him its advertised at the wrong price wants £3500 -£4000. Thats a fooker mate , in other words he wanted £2k and now people have tod him its worth more, thing is anything can be valued at whatever, true value is only reflected in what someone is actually willing to pay for it! Something will come up anyway mate, the bargains always seem to find you anyway good luck with your search
Guest lagerlout Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 im not having much luck with the bargains at the moment also theyve closed the thread on the mk1 escort now.
Baz. Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 why cant you get to the 1300e on a train or coach? National express coches are well cheep, and get the matey to meet you at the other end where is it?
RFChris Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 Don;t let distace be an issue for the right car mate! Hell, the Prefect and Doc (not that i'm buying him) are in Glasgow which is about 400 miles away! Good old motors are worth the mileage! Chris

tinky Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 As Chris says, don't let distance put you off..... I drove my 3.0S up from West London to Aberdeen! Flew to Luton then train to Richmond. Seller picked me up from there. Didn't have any Test either (was taxed tho) I'm sure there are members on here who will help out if they can..

I have just bought a car in Faikirk, I live just north of Watford, 394 miles to be exact, I have the intentions of flying up to Edinburgh airport with sleazy jet.
