Its less than 10 minutes away if anyone is interested enough for me to have a look for them. Better prime me with the right questions though....

question no. 1.... will you take £150 for it?<br>
guestion no. 2....are you deluded?<br>
<br>
im sorry but sprints rarely get that sort of cash although if it sells for £1250. than it can only do good for the dollys value.<br>

I guess the reserve is something like the buy it now price, so perhaps we all wait for it not to sell and hope the relist is more realistic.....Now I know roughly where it is, I might swing by anyway...

If we continue to de value our motors here....... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rolleyes --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
Spit wheels and illegal plates for sure but looks tidy to me.<br>
Shoot me if you think otherwise!<br>
The Manta club suffer the same depreciating attitude, so it may 'only' be a 1300 but look how much MK2 Escort 1300's fetch with or without the wrong bl**dy wheels. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eek.gif ALT=":eek"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
No, this is not my car but I wish it was, as it looks quite nice.<br>
1300 or not £1200 aint a bad price for a solid economical motor with a bit of character to boot! <br>
What would you drive? a Nova! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

I had a young lad bring his 13 round for a tune at the weekend. Was a little lulu, one previous grannie owner and in this colour and sub 50 k miles. I was pleased he had been happy to pay 1200 for it....<br>
In absolute terms it wasnt a bad buy. I could probably have bought it for 800 by being cruel to grannie (Flat paint on the roof) but like you all say...why talk them down.<br>
This one looks like at least a monkey...alhough a gorilla is a bit strong.<br>

This looks very much like the one your mate sold last year Jonners (James???). Same wheels, spoiler, alloy rocker cover (indeed the underbonnet shot looks identical). I seem to remember the illegal number plates.<br>
<br>
If I recall, it sold then for £850, so it looks like someone is trying for a quick buck. At the time, £850 was regarded as top dollar for a 1300 Dolly. Even if we allowed a generous dose of inflation that would only equate to £900-950 now.<br>
<br>
I hate pushing the values of these cars down, but a 1300 Dolly would have to be exceptional in my view to warrant over a grand privately. <br>
<br>
That said, a few years ago whilst holidaying in Cornwall, I did stop at a local garage where they had a 1980 1300 Dolly with 97 miles on the clock for £3000. It hadn't sold by the time I went home......

if it was indeed the one James was selling. Havent heard from him in a while and I dont remember his having any dents and it was lower than 50k miles for sure.<br>
I also would have remembered telling him off about the illegal plates if he had fitted them, being analy retentive about such things..<br>
so I concluded it probably wasnt despite the similar SE wheels and trims..<br>

the ebayer has had this one since sept. 05.<br>
i agree with the comments about keeping the prices up but that is far too much.<br>
£800-900 seems about right for a minter with ticket.<br>

Those wheels might, just might be original, they did fit them to some of the very last 1300s.<br>
