                hi mate ,that really is a stunning escort and well worth the price you are asking but its just to much for me ,i know my limits and dont wanna waste your time trying to haggle on something that is clearly worth your asking price . one will turn up sooner or later but you know what its like when you have cash burning a hole in your pocket

                    I know only too well about that money and holes in pockets. Went and bought standard one after viewing a 500bhp one and now know I probably should have waited for another, all is not yet lost as I may put it up for sale or end up spending lots of money.

                      I'm going to be contraversial here, but I reckon if you go and see some cars there might be people with half decent ones that would take a cheeky offer of £13k. Times are hard and there are definitely people struggling. For someone hard up for cash, a genuine £13k is going to be a lot better than chancing having a car sat around for months.

                      Just my humble opinion.

                      Although, saying that I wouldn't sell mine for £13k.

                      Have you seen this one advertised. If this is as good in the flesh I reckon this is a decent one. Gives you an idea what you could get anyway.

                        Scottrs,

                        Why dont you purchase a car that needs a little tlc then you can put the rest of the money you have left over into to make it what you want it to be , but like most of us you will get bored with the power and want more and more and more,

                        Hope you got some spare cash saved up as when Cossie go wrong they are expensive to fix..

                        Good luck with your search

                            if i could find one that justed need a wee bit bit of tlc i would do that ,just not much out there this now .power is not that important i have a 350bhp wrx at the moment and i will be honest i hate it to much power and gets me in to trouble half the time lol.
                            fully aware that there dear to fix but thats my trade so i know my way around an engine

                              They do pop up from time to time, i think myne was a steal, payed less than 13k only has 40k on the clock with massive history and was a local car owned by someone at work
                              To be fair though it does need some paint.
