My mates dad. Has been in the motor trade for years. Is now disabled and has had an orion sat in the garage for 5 years. 1600cc. With a new mot for the purchaser. He would like to see £400 to put towards a mobility scooter. I cant see them ever being a classic. He is getting me some pics. Just testing the water really, see if its just scrap yard material or if its anywhere near a classic. Some blisters on the arches at the back. But mechanically tidy. I got a trader policy so I can tax it, you could drive it home.

If its a mk 3 or 4 Escort (up to a H reg) shape then its certainly better than scrap.

07931 459385. don't tell me mate its a classic though. I told him it prolly wasnt and he came up with £400 ! Is it too cheap then ? He sparked it up today, second kick on the key. And purred like a kitten. Not bad for being sat for so long. Put some fresh juice in.

well, sadly, was arranging collection of the car, but the owner wasnt happy for it to be driven away, despite being legal, sadly due to distance, its not financially viable to trailer it. But the owner sounded genuine and loved the car very much!just hope he finds the right person for it!gutted not to get this!

How annoying! Can you find someone local to trailer it round the corner and meet you?
