seems a bit too cheap somehow... i like it though!


Mr Whippy - 25/3/08 at 03:34 PM

looks a nice conversion and good paint. I agree, does seem a bit under priced, I'd have put it closer to 3k

oops now we'll get some rant about us pushing up the price again...

Probably only 150 ish BHP - not so fast really also what's the interior like?

Could make a good donor though

It has to be the fastest shed of the week yet though right? If not slightly expensive for it


Mr Whippy - 25/3/08 at 03:52 PM

hmm don't know, I think that engine was destined to be there, so much torque everyone goes on about bhp but I'd rather have pulling power.

What is it with folk these days who call any old car, regardless of it condition a shed? IMOP it's a classic car and I’m glad someone has taken the time and effort to look after it.

Must be this throw away culture...

I didn't name it shed of the week, although I suppose I do trust pistonheads judgement!

On the other hand, it does look to be in nice condition.

Decisions decisions

That V8 looks like it was meant to be there!

I like it.

Your not trying to start a BEC v CEC row again are you?

Viento donor?


Coose - 25/3/08 at 05:24 PM

Sorry, but I'd call it pretty pointless - if it was a Mk2 Escort I'd say otherwise, but there was a point not so long ago that you couldn't give away XR4i's, so how could this (which wouldn't be much better) be worth any more?

I don't know what the reserve is, but surely this must be worth that kind of money?
