Special XR2
Since owning a yellow mk1 1300S for ten years, I've always lusted after one of these....
Considered one when I bought my Puma, until I thought about not being able to put unleaded in it, not being able to get mk 1 spares by 2000 when the "Yellow Peril" went to Valhalla, just how bad mk1 brakes were.
The itch is still there though :-({|=

Bloody Hell, that is truly time-warp condition. I wonder how much it will fetch. I have to say one day I'm going to buy a 1988 (XU9JA) 205 1.9 GTI with next to no miles on the clock and keep it in a garage somewhere just to look at and drive in the sunshine occasionally, and the same for a Trophy too, if I haven't still got it in my retirement!
Can remember driving my first one circa 1980, held their own in their day, what happened to small performance Fords?
I had one in white, then a mate bought a mk1 GTI.
Had a drive & bye bye, was hooked on VAG for the next ten years \

OUCH! Proper low mileage Trophy money for a 25 year old Fiesta! You've got to be completely in love with them or a fruit loop to pay that (probably the same thing).
As for small fast fords, what about the Fiesta ST, 0-60 probably about the same as this. :lol:

How much did they want then ? :?
i doubt that it was intended for sale then - they will have been trying to gauge market value, who in their right mind would turn down £22k for a 25 year old fiesta?
It's not like they've spend thousands on it in mods, it's just been stored away.

Nutters.
I bet you could source all the parts - including body shell - for less.
Lad that I work with says his brother recently found a perfect condition MK 2 Escort body shell still in it wrappings, bought it for £400 and then sold it again for £2K.
It is now on a rally car with a Cosworth engine and 4 wheel drive :shock:

Tailgates were non-existent for mk 1 Fiestas by the mid 90s....
