jxke Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 As title, looking for a Mk2 Escort petrol cap since someone nicked mine. Usually wouldn't care but a quick look on ebay for a replacement sees them going for £40+! Anyone got one laying around to sell at a price that's not extortionate? Really can't afford to pay stupid money for little things
PeteRS8084 Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 Good luck mate, I think 40 squid is probably quiet cheap. Some one may have one lying around.
jxke Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Posted September 27, 2015 Seriously? No wonder it got nicked! Irritating how something so small yet valuable is so easy to pinch 1
colr6 Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 Maybe it comes complete with tank fuel lines and carb
PeteRS8084 Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 I have seen them on flea bay with a start price of 90 squid! And loads start at 50. Here's a tip use a locking one, that's what I use, and used in the late 70s and 80s. So unless your concourse mad then locking is the security and cheaper option? 1
jxke Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Posted September 27, 2015 Yeah I'd like a locking one now, it's just that mine was always the non-locking one and I didn't know the value :/
PeteRS8084 Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 There are always locking ones on flea bay, in either chrome or black finish. And they won't get nicked...... winner winner chicken dinner!
jxke Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Posted September 27, 2015 Great thanks, I'll have a look - hopefully not as pricey!?
PeteRS8084 Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 Fingers crossed. You could even try the old skool motor factors........They may have some old stock knocking about in the back, and won't know it's value now 1
khanlad Posted September 27, 2015 Report Posted September 27, 2015 Think i may have a silver locking one, going up to car at weekend ill look and let you know if youre interested? 2
jxke Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Posted September 27, 2015 Yeah thanks that'd be excellent if you don't mind!
jxke Posted October 3, 2015 Author Report Posted October 3, 2015 Think i may have a silver locking one, going up to car at weekend ill look and let you know if youre interested? Any luck bud?
khanlad Posted October 3, 2015 Report Posted October 3, 2015 Yeah got cap, no key in it, which is strange because i normally leave them in stuff as not to get them all muddled up? Ill have a look at home see if ive bought it back with me, give me a day or so, can you hang on or you desperate?
khanlad Posted October 6, 2015 Report Posted October 6, 2015 Got the key, pm me and can sort getting it to you? 1
