WANTED by June 2006 MK1 Escort Mexico
« on: June 28, 2005, 11:43:26 pm »
 :-* :-* :-*

Hi - I need a car to get down to Le Mans next year - preferably the above and preferably sooner than June 2006.

FDSH!
Immaculate interior (well that is true)
low mileage!

There is nothing on Ebay - a helpful Club-Arnage member only managed to find a 'modern' Mexico for sale and it was green - I thought the MK 1 Mexico was only made in orange but I could be wrong - I often am.

Will be in UK in August to pay and collect.

Thanks Fran

Why did I think the Escort Mexico was only Orange??

I know it was my first ever car - 10 lessons beginning, the day I was 17. Paid for by my mum, BSM.  But thank goodess for that as I had to drive myself to the hospital to have Elliott, my son (obviously) who is now 16, pretty soon after.

So, was it the JEANS BEETLE that was only orange - with a rather nice tasteful denim interior?

Ta for the advice about the alloys (I do know all about them, however,).. Sorry for being daft, but is Cralos Fandabngo a real person? I have heard my ex husband go on about him a lot - and never asked why! Thought he was just reffering to himeself.

I do actually know a bit about fast stuff but perhaps not as much as you.

Speak soon i hope - don't mean to be sooooo negative.

sh*t is happening though

The Bond Bug was only orange, but thats not likely to be mixed up with anything else!!!!!!

The "set of  carlos fandango wheels" reference is from an old advert, the car had giant wheels and wheel arches, drove thru a gateway n ripped em off again!  It might have been Hamlet, but might not..... i daresay Steve Brown can find a still from it given a bit of time!

The RS owners club cater for Mexico's
http://www.rsownersclub.co.uk/

If you go to the local regions clubs they mostly have 'a for sale' section. I found a couple of mexico's on offer,

BTW, I had a Nordic blue Mk2 RS2000 droop nose. still the best car I ever owned.
Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

Doh! Sorry I should have realised. I did wonder why you had such desire for a modern escort  ;)

There seems to be just one for sale on AutoTrader at the moment.

Click Here To See Car Details

I am also pretty sure that the Mexico is covered by the RS Owners club ( www.rsownersclub.co.uk )

If you mean the one I listed from Auto Trader, it does not say where it is, but simply lists it as being 345 miles from my location, which is Bromley (South London/Kent border). This would put it somewhere North of a line between Carlisle and Berwick-upon-Tweed.

Wowsers!!!

are you serious??!

how lucky am I?

just make sure about the interior Brian, as i do not want it to have belonged to an ex Doberman owner - although the Doberman would come in very handy just now, (if it was called Killer)

I can tfr the cash to you direct - cheques are now virtually extinct.

A reason to live - a new car - just what I needed.

That being said - you cannot sleep with a car - only in it!
