Just seen this about a Series 1 Escort RS Turbo going in auction for 90K:

It had only done 5500 miles since new and clearly had been well looked after, but I can't help thinking how can you not drive it?

Wasn't it the Sierra that went for 90k, and the escort that went for 60k?
Either way, its absolute madness!

Yes, got it the wrong way round.

Just doing some more reading up on it, apparently there was 18 phone bidders all going mental for it!

Crazy money!!!

Just seen on the same site a low mileage Cosworth for sale:

Another one in auction, guide price £50-60k:

Only done 5300 miles but... you'd be scared to drive it, and not sure how well it would run having been sat there idle for so long - precisely 125 miles covered in the last 13 years!

Madness atm. All cars are flying up in value... Ferrari's are stupid money know. 25% increase since last year. Who's buying these?

I'm not going to moan though as our Focus are going up in value too.

Rather the values stayed down so it was less likely to be nicked and cheaper to insure
