ah yes, those iconic 1930's ripspeed alloys. just the look.

A very difficult ad to read too, why all capitals??

The car doesn't look too bad, can't see whats 30s about it though.

I have just asked when it was S/IVA'd. Il bet i dont get a reply!

how difficult would it be to IVA though?

Just thinking if it went for 1500, surely iva it for under a grand and it would be worth more than 2.5k (or wouldn't it?)

It has to pass the IVA though....

I find it quite interesting the way eBay ad's are written as an insight into their inner soul

still a piece of poo even with an mot

Funny that - it doesn't look like any Escort Mexico I've ever seen!... plus G was 1968-69 and I think the Mexico came out in 1970...

after it won the 70 london to mexico rally. I thought there was a 1600 sport but only in mk2 guise...

but agreed, it does smell a little fishy although some kits were given an amnesty by the DVLA many years ago after they found that too many registered escorts where actually 7's...
