I had a mk1 escort Mexico sold it in 1980 for £450 still brings a tear to my eyes when I see the money they go for now

I remember watching a Sierra Coswoth  RS going round Goodwood circuit back in the day . I was severely impressed  .

I do remember welding and painting most of them. As a time served panel beater in a former life, most of them with Scottish winter salt were uneconomic wrecks after 7 years. As has been mentioned, emotions tend to trump actual worth,- although having something that doesn’t require paying road tax or mot-ing is nice.

That Cortina is left hand drive, probable spent most of its life in good weather why it looks that good.

Lots of stuff we didn’t realise would be worth money.

 

FS1Es go for 5k in half decent condition.

My brother had a fizzer brand new, cost him £199 with 1 years tax and insurance. He did have a look at getting one a few years back... until he found out what sort of money they are making.
