It's sold!
As per usual, I didn't get what I wanted, but it's how life goes. Some bogan bought it... his reason for a new car being that he wrote off his old AU XR6 5 days after buying it. If he writes this one off, I hope it takes him out too. Anyway, Cheers!

I guess this means no more Ghia relations... Sad day man
 I would have jacked up the price if i heard that, but what can you do. Sometimes you just can't choose your buyers. I hope for your sake that he actually looks after it. Best of luck finding your new car Russ... |

Hopefully I can find something a little bit exciting to take the Ghia's place. {USERNAME} wrote: What are you buying now Im going to look at a MkII 2.0L Escort Ghia tomorrow night...  Hopefully it'll be a good night for me. Cheers guys, Russ.

I went and saw the Escort on Thursday night and it did have a bit of rust under the vinyl roof, but it wasn't bad enough for me to regret entirely... so I offered the guy a ball park figure on how much it'd cost to repair, plus what I was willing to pay for it. He said he'd get back to me by Sunday...
Here's some pictures of it off Gumtree.   It's the 2L OHC Pinto donk, with a two barrel carby on it. It's all original other than the painted air filter cover, and a CD player. It was rather straight other than the rust. Here's hoping that he accepts my offer. Cheers, Russ.

It's a 4sp Manual, and it drove really well. Felt like I was going 100mph, but was only just hitting 60kmph.
It's just the rust that got me. It'd need a new vinyl roof too, but what's the fun in having a perfect car?

If he accepts my offer, I'd come out in front for what I sold my car for, so my wallet is looking pretty good. {USERNAME} wrote: I thought that you wanted a ute? Cool escort though. And the ute idea got canned, so I thought I'd look into other 4 cylinder cars.
