    I know what your saying but as said old 80's stuff is becoming collectable and if you want a good one be prepared to pay the price. Obviously someone wants a sport that bad who will pay the price! Most probably won't make that as there are alot of messers on ebay .

    I see where you are coming from but I think it can apply to any of the obscene prices that old 80s / 90s stuff is going for now.
    The people that wanted them when they were new were either to young or couldnt afford them.

    Now there older and can afford them so will pay over the odds to get one.

    So the guy has two old 'RS' Fords and a shoddy old Vauxhall and the Vauxhall is going for far more so far :o Never thought I would see that happen!

    I couldn't afford a cosworth when I was young and I certainly can't now.
    Unless I win the lottery I will never own one and it's one car I'd like to have owned.

    I too wanted an Escort, still do now. But today, paying £30k+ for a 25 year old car? No a fucking chance

    Nostalgia isnt cheap it seems

    What makes ford's so special anyway? Just cos it has rs in front don't make it that special. Go's to show whats more desirable the one that's making more money out the three!!

    Surely you mean the ones that dont get relisted

    Edit: if you look through the bid history its actually quite clear to see that some one with 45 feedback is placing high bids on all 3 cars.

    Getting a friend to bump up the bids probably.
