Cosworth Estate for sale - only 73K miles

Sadly, I have been put on half-time at work. I was going to fit a towbar to the Scorp, but now the caravan we planned has to remain just a dream for the time being! As a result, the Cossie is too much car for my present circumstances and has to go. Only 73K and EVERYTHING works as it should! All the timing gear has been replaced - chains, guides, tensioners, sprockets, etc. There is no chain noise at all - not even after the car has been left standing for more than 2 weeks! Work cost £2K. Also, there is no rust on the car - wheel arches, etc, are perfect. Aircon has just been topped up and runs ice-cold. Recent new battery. There are one or two minor, everday type things, but nothing that effects the running, performance, or reliability of the car. It is dark blue with matching velour interior. Don't know what to ask, but has to be more than £1000 due the low mileage, condition, and the work that has been done. If anyone is genuinely interested, please PM me. Otherwise it will have to be eBay. Thanks. Roger.

Circumstances have changed, and I will now be keeping the Scorpio for the time being. I must say I am delighted to keep it, but concerned that if anything serious goes wrong I won't be able to afford to have it repaired! Fingers Xed.

Hello all, Unfortunately the purchase of the caravan fell through, and I no longer need the car, so she's for sale again. Just to add, all the undersealing was 'topped up' a few months ago. All bare patches rubbed down and resealed, etc. She really does go well! Really, really sad to part with her, but my half-time pay is simply not enough to indulge in a 3-litre limo, and so it's back to the J-reg Peugeot 309! Anybody interested? Regards. Roger.
