    This looks nice (if you can look past the colour), but €30k?

    That van has had a lot of work done to put it back on the road. Never mind the fact that they cut the sides out of an OG irish panel for windows. He's asking big money for a van that would tell some stories if you pulled a few of the interor panels out for a proper inspection.........

    Cool car but looks like it's in rag order. Not worth next nor near the asking IMO.

    That has genuinely got to be at least 4k overpriced

    A member bought a nicer looking example (albeit needing a good bit of work) for, iirc, 900 quid about two years ago.

    Strong money for a non-Cosworth alright.

    Looks tidy all the same (apart from the stupid stance and lowering), probably worth about 8-9k.

    Are they Escort Cossie wheels? Can’t quite place them.

    The high price and still on UK plates. Madness. It is clean but you need to throw a few quid on it just to make it legal. With that price it needs to already be on Irish plates.

    Agree, even on the Escort they looked aftermarket.
    A bit bland or something.
    Ford were usually pretty good at distinctive wheel design. Even if it was only a plastic cover.

    The only wheels that should be on that is proper sapphire cosworth wheels

    Ghia and Cosworths have 2 number plate lights, Majority of normal Sierras only have 1.

    IMO, the car is worth its weight in scrap.

    NCT expired on 29 March 2017, it looks like the car is been driven on a regular basis, so the fact that the NCT has not been kept up to date sets off major alarm bells that the car needs a lot of money pumped into it to pass the test.


    Indeed it is a rare car, however if I was after a rare luxury car for 5k, I'd look at this A8 4L V8 Quattro https://bit.ly/2YI0gsq

    Surely €9,850 for a Glanza is dreamer territory with no NCT and on uk plates? I have one myself with nct and only 59k miles and was going to sell it but I didn’t think they were worth anything near that.

    I dunno, find another one.

    It's not totally unmolested but it does look clean. What would one in from Japan cost you these days?

    Must dust mine off :pac:

    I suppose they have definitely gone up in Japan alright. I got one myself in 2008 from Japan I think it was around €4,500 all in back then. Got it going again there recently forgot how fun it is to drive. But 10k seems an awful lot of money for one.

    From what I've seen that ad isn't real but to import one you wouldn't be too far from 9k

    My favorite is "Just needs a few small bits for the NCT"

    Bullsh1t. If they were that small they would either be sorted already, or at least specified in the ad.
