They are collectors cars, most good ones have sub 50k millage. People don't buy just for the way they drive you can have a subaru for a fraction which will probably be quicker and griper etyc.
I dnt like std 5 spokes love the big rondel's or whatever that everyone puts on them

yes but thats not why its expensive dude, same as the original audi quatrro coupe's are worth like £7-8k for a minter even tho by todays standards they arent as fast.
Its classical status not outright performance

classic stunning car, but the money they go for is well over what they are actually worth, ie its performance in standard guise, the fact its just a ford escort with a decent engine in etc so i wouldnt consider spending that on one
That is not true, its a compeltely different shell than a normal escort. Its bigger by 4inches or something.
Its engineered by cosworth and yes standard guise not much faster than my cally, but MASSIVE tuning potential.
Plus if u bought one its supposed to not depreciate, alltho im not sure how true that is!
Yea, but Steve can only say bad stuff about cars. He doesn't like any cars at all.
