Next to nothing I'm afraid, what year is it?

A browse on eBay and Autotrader normally gives a good idea of current values ;)

Heres an idea,
If the escort engine is so enonomical why not drop it into the scorp ;D
Okay, Okay it was a joke and I know you would all be throwing things at me if you could ;D
Think I said this last friday night I should realy stay away from the pc when I am drinking :-[

Don't worry, it's only a matter of time before PC's and Laptops are fitted with Breathalysers to prevent you logging on if "over the limit".
Of course the limit will be 0.0 mg of alcohol ;D
It's a Health and Safety issue you know...........

Unfortunately this type of car is next to worthless now. My mate has just bought a mk6 N reg escort 1.6lx for £150 not immaculate but certainly presentable with 6 months mot and 2 months tax well chuffed he is but the women who he bought it off of said she had been trying to sell it for a couple of weeks! Unbeliveable but true I'm afraid. :-/

The car itself is a H plate, has had 2 owners from new and is like new inside, suffers from usual rust on the back arches though.. lol

Has a set of 14" si escort alloys on it which i will probably get more for than the car by the looks of things!
