Absolute piles of junk. Rubbish to drive, crap in every area and rot boxes. Anyone paying big money is a mug.

The guy who paid that money for a 76mile car is certainly not planning to drive it. Will be for a collection no doubt.

But it is a classic in terms of car history and it's a 'just off the line' condition no doubt.

I grew up on Ford Escorts. Had a number of them over the years (mk2 escorts and a mk3 RS1800i too name a few. And remember they were designed to be an inexpensive sports car. What was the price difference between a 964 or 993 and an Escort Cosworth back in the day?
