Still a fair amount of scorp for the money :) I considered a bid myself, but distance, the above post  ::) and the wear visible to the interior in that photo put me off.

Wouldnt have surprised me if the reserve was not far off tho - £500 ?

Are the power racks common across the range out of interest ?

The 24v has a pressure sensor attached,I believe all the others are the same.

You'd have to get a real mug to part with £1000 for the whole car.

I don't think that there's even that many people around who know what a Scorpio is, all I get at work are blank looks and remarks like; "I don't know what one of them is mate"!

depends how much you want it, it looks a bit rough on the interior but it is quite a rare one, even for a Scorpio :)

True.

The recaro seats are very comfy though, having had much the same in a Mondeo a while back.

ive got a set of recaros from a scorp up in my loft ready to fit into my cossie, i paid £200 for them and they are in the same condition as these.

to get a £1000 for it then you have to break it and sell it for more then the going price of stuff atm, cossie lumps go for £100 these days

You'll get £100 for a set of BOB cams ;)

the more bit you can break it into the more you'll make ;)
