Not really now, you can get a nice mk1 (non recorded) for 10k. I'd even sell mine (which is a straight car) for that.
I'd give no more than 7k for that recorded red one.
I'll be comnig from the Romford area, but tbh I don't know what time i'll be there, i'll say 9am but i've got a work do this Friday, so 9am might be hopeful, because of this i'll just go by myself as I don't want to let anyone down. I will try for 9 though.
Did the Evo even come on boost ? Something's not quite right really, I know about bhp per ton etc, but i'd have said the Evo would still be quicker... unless the clio's not standard ?? (as well as being stripped out)
Breakers, see if you can get one there. Renault will charge you that amount as it's a new part, aslo their labour isn't cheap etc. You can sort it without laying out a load of cash or sealing it up.
Yeah I had a W reg electric blue plus about three years ago now, I went to a few fccuk meets in bluewater when I had it. mine was un-touched engine wise (it had had a filter on it etc though) suspension wise it was pretty sorted (billies etc)
Yep, sadly that's how cheap they've become. There are lots around for less, but I reckon they won't be immaculate etc. Assuming yours is mint, I reckon 4k is a fair price.

Excuse the awful remix...
Standard ones look a bit hmm, if you get an LE or a Plus they look better, you can always get the side skirts etc fittted on though :) Mine was a complete minter, a plus in electric blue- very sought after :D i'd probs have another Plus, or an LE (in Vinci Grey, lush !)
Yep it'll be worth less if it's recorded. Tops (pre accident) i'd say your car was worth 4k, if it's recorded it'll only be worth about 2k - 2.5k I'd see what they say tbh.
Also, if it is recorded whoever buys it won't get the full market value if it's crashed again etc as they've already...
Following on from the thread about wastegates etc I dug this out (yep it's old but still worth seeing !)

0-100 mph = 7.1 secs !
0-150 mph = 13.2 secs !
206 mph top speed !
Oh yeas !!!:star:
Also this one of their tuned Escort Cossie's from a Clarkson DVD...
Chavved, you can just imagine how it's been driven !
I do think those wheels wolud look nice on an old (original) VW Bug though, they'd be right at home on a Cali styled one.
Mint selection of cars, love the new FRS !! The vee still cut it too, those two cars are my favourite:cool:
Cracking shots there too, verry impressive:D
-on a side note, Ali you've not sold up have you ? Is it being painted (again son);)
Imo atmospheric dump valves are awful as they are so chavvy ! Most newer cars have a re-circ one fitted as standard, it doesn't make the pttsssshh sound.
The noise the Fifth Gear Esprit made was ace, I don't think that was a blow off or dump valve though.
Found it, 4.10 onwards. Mint ...
