^^^Fark,that looks dangerous Tony^^^^
I don't think i'd ride that.
Look how spindly and flimsy the whole lot of it looks.
Looks like a junkyard build.
I think they were called "Twin Cam's" not "Lotus"
and the quantity was closer to 1000 than 200...
either way...
65,000 POUND!!! for a Mk1 Escort !!!!!!!!!!

Thats a bit steep for a Lotus Twin Cam Escort Tony. One of my mates had one and did a bit of rallying in 1973 or 1974. In fact he lived just around the corner from you in the Habberley Estate. I went for a spin with him one night up to Trimpley and it was very quick. Brings back a few memories.Quote:

There was a bit of an Escort Cult around Kiddy,
Jeff and Steve Hatch, Bart Morris, The Nunn's etc.
A few real nice originals and lots with Cossy motors
or Fiat Twin Cam's.

Yup that's your old Bandit Gitz. Asking price is pretty damn rude after what he paid for it ! We don't speek these days, he turned out to be a bit of a user. He also tends to buy a few damaged bikes and then floggs them online, background is normally the same.

"Not to mention the existing 750cc V4 legendary torque.
It will tear your arms off and power lift the front in 1st and 2nd easily...
maybe 3rd (I wasnt game to try)"
One for the Pommies....

Holy Fuck that MK 1 "Twin Cam" is a basket case, obviously I am missing something !!!
Ahh well thats a shame.. I miss that thing, had it since I was 17:( I would have like to see it go to someone who kept it.. Very tempted to buy it back, but not for that price..Quote:

Tony isnt that the engine they used for the "Hesketh"?
Pretty cool though by the way!
