    To be fair, there's not loads done that can't be swapped back to standard within a couple of hours and you can make some money on those parts. But I agree, does look a but rough

        Infact looking closer it gets worse boost gauge in dash screwed in , strut tops drilled totally ruined the car 12k over priced if not more

          The mods are not too bad really, similar to what Max did to his low miler white one.

            Dave,
            Max's wasnt 7K and he didnt drill things into the dash or drill the body for braces etc! He's also looked a 20K car, where as that looks more 70K than 7

            Oh and Max's was priced accordingly

              I think people need to stop picking fault on every single car that pops up for sale and read what it says on the top banner on this site.

              "The Friendly Community For Ford Escort RS Cosworth Owners"

              If it had been owned by the correct person on here it would have been perfect as it is
              The only modification on the car in the link is the holes the strut brace will leave! The panel with the gauge in it can easily be replaced.

              Would you be happy if it was your car, and you found this site and read about people criticising every single little mod you had done to your pride and joy?

                            End of the day its a forum about the escort cosworth , i dont see anything wrong with talking about the car or any other car for sale at that matter you never know who is in the market & will read the thread's good & bad points. not every car gets slated there is a thread with a link to ebay in the for sale room the other day car sold straight away & everyone had nothing but praise for it as it was a good car sensibly priced
