Slammed Posted June 14, 2008 Report Posted June 14, 2008 just things going on in my mind! i work for sanspeed now and the jobs great! graham(boss of sanspeed) and myself were talking about this subject today. i was thinking should i buy a mk1/2 escort this year or should i wait till next? i notice that many people my age have an osf. if not i can always get a mk1 fezza gavin
antz Posted June 14, 2008 Report Posted June 14, 2008 get one at the end of this summer. prices are high cos the weather is good. when its hit and winter they sell slightly cheaper adn the prices are rising rapidly...even mk1 fezzas are going up. do it while you have a chance
Slammed Posted June 14, 2008 Author Report Posted June 14, 2008 may do graham has one he is offering to me but i need to pull up the cash! or there is a guy in wales who has some. but a travel up there gonna be sh1t! think i best just to save and wait for the right one!
antz Posted June 14, 2008 Report Posted June 14, 2008 better save fast cos the prices are going mad. expect to travel for a good one. I had to travel just over 220miles for mine (each way!) they arent gonan get cheaper and the way rally boys smash them they are getting rarer too.
Slammed Posted June 14, 2008 Author Report Posted June 14, 2008 hence me selling my xflow bits got to work hard and save hard! any more advice?
Gonzo Posted June 14, 2008 Report Posted June 14, 2008 Haggle like buggery! Go in there with say £200 less than he wants in one pocket, and have the other £200 spread about in different pockets. Know what to look for rot-wise [i expect that's an obvious] and generally have a good poke around the car to find anything to knock him down with. Turn up with someone that does know their osf's well for a second opinion as well. Puts the pressure on the seller a bit.

Slammed Posted June 14, 2008 Author Report Posted June 14, 2008 cheers gonzo got my dad and his mate coming along and they know ther stuff!
