I have been to the Ascension Island 20+ times, if its anything like this island, the islanders are brilliant at making the cars look good, the island has 2x mk1 3 mk2 escorts couple of Mk1 fezzies, and none of them would pass a uk MOT, unless you have a lot of panels and really good with a welder.

 

They are nowhere near the standard of cars that are getting imported from Malta

A mate of mine who i grew up with his family originated from there though he was English told me about the cars there as he has been over many times , when his dad went back about 10 years ago to retire he took 3 mk1 Capris with him and they were tatty items , his dad reckoned that islanders would be trying to buy them off him on the docks as cars are not easily avaible......

They are more British than we are afternoon tea and that kinda thing.........every car is worth the shipping charge £1500 last time i went. and thats only to Asension, If you really want to go id say look at flying to South Africa and then the Ship across that way could be cheaper than from the UK
