My Daily with my new baby

[thrashermax]

My CSL is my daily, used in all weathers and now on 100,500 miles. My new baby is a genuine mark 1 RS2000 Escort.

Some pressed ali plates would finish it off nicely :smokin:

Genuine RS2000 between £15 - £27k

Genuine Mexicos between £12 - £23k

I was lucky to find one out of traders hands... traders are buying these privately then marking them up as prices are on the up... helped by them...:(

Not mine, I bought from Cardiff on the 1st March, the previous owner only took her to the Lakes, Snowdonia and Le Mans tours.

You'll be seeing her tear around Sussex/Surrey now though!

Thanks for all the comments... I am at peace now with my changing car obsession... for me a M3 CSL and RS2000 is a dream garage.

absolutely stunning ;0)

[Bealo]

Very nice garage.... Enjoy :thumbs:

Probably the same car, although the trader had it up for sale at 20-23k for most of last year and it didn't shift. He apparently 'restored' it right after buying it from me and I spotted at least 3 mistakes with the resto, unforgivable if you want top money. I first bought that car in 1987 as my first car so it was a bit of a heart tug to let it go but hey...
Anyway if you ever end up over East Brighton way just off the A27 then send me a pm as I have lots of AVO related literature you can have :wink: (BUT only if you turn up in either one of the above cars :-D )

Thanks Shawn, that would be great! I only have these two so it will be the CSL or RS that I show up in.

I work in Lancing so not a million miles away from you.
