  • average owner age

    just wondered what the average age of the escos owner was , back in the day even if i could of afforded one there was no way i could have insured it, is it old gits like me that own them or want them or younger generations but i would of thought they were not high tec enough for them

    I've owned mine since I was 31, I'm 44 now. I do tend to think of them as more of a younger mans car, problem is nowadays the younger guys cannot afford them as the prices have gone stupid. If I'm being honest I should have moved on years ago to something more befitting my age, but as said the prices of the natural progression (i.e Porsche etc) have gone stupid too so I guess we're stuck with each other

        if i see a chap in his 60s driving a Ferrari especially a soft top i think it a bit sad really but if he was in an Aston martin i would think nothing other than nice car, at 52 years old i just wonder why im driving what really is a bit of a hooligans car [well not driving sitting in garage ] really i should get something more sedate but its nice to have something a bit special.

            33 now, think i got mine escos when i was 25...

            The local "new" escos owners in 90's, was mainly owned by mid 20 to early 30's


            One "friend" bought one New i 94, and was proud offcourse and impressed of the car, but he was left behind on local road by another friend in a very Nice s2 rst. But that car was tuned up and was kept very clean (but abused)

            IT was a wolf here to, a monte, couple of st, and another very early 92 mod that cane here in 98-99 if i remember correct, i saw that car again not long ago and IT was getting Nice again after a couple of owners realy ruined IT...

            But sadest part is that i am sure more stolen cars was broken around here, then cars legaly bought...

                          I’m 40 and I’ve had it nearly 3 years. I’ve always wanted one had loads of saff cosworths when I was younger and yes I did leave it late as prices climbed high but it was o it made possible due to the sale of my mk2 rs2000.
