    As said above could be as simple as an typo mistake on V5.

    Now go and enjoy it mate, health to drive

      Ah fook not another heart stooping moment from a new owner Shit , I'm only just get tin over my scare with me new ESCOS.

      Do a proper HPI check on here : https://www.hpicheck.com/marlin/?supplier=&update=false

      Pay the £19.99. You will need the reg, Chassis/vin number, V5 serial number and issue date.
      It takes about 30 seconds once you pay on-line and the full certificate is e-mailed automatically. I did mine at 11pm last week.
      Hope its ok for you, how.........much.........did........you.....pay... .....he asked tentatively

            Just gone through the folder full of paperwork and it seems it was imported by dagenham motors ( it's written on their headed paper) for a customer back in 1994.
            I can't remember what the V5 says. Will have to check it out when it comes back.
            If in doubt, flat out !

              Hope everything adds up for you mate but im sure you must have some rights if something is advertised as an escort cosworth and it turned out it wasn't even though its a private sale.

                    To be fair, I think max is quite right posting on here instead of a pm as It lets more people know the history of the car, I for 1 didn't realise that's why the advert was pulled on this site.

                    It's just a shame that the guy who is buying/bought it didn't know this especially with the car being advertised for strong money

                          Is the chassis number under the flap next to the drivers seat?
                          If in doubt, flat out !

                            Ok just checked the car. Both sets of vin numbers read the same( the one next the drivers seat and the one on the tab on the dash near the tax disc)
                            If in doubt, flat out !

                                The Chassis given was for a Cosworth Lux GB territory, no aircon, build date 3/1993 also the original plate was K73GXP. Sadly it doesn't state the colour on the build
