No way!
Is it a citreon/escort/capri?

Surely not a 300?

If ones sneaked past me, im going to be very disapointed with myself.

And congrats man.

Unfortunately not from a 300 lol

I wish though. Was just seeing how many death threats I would receive :lol:

mk1 Escort. It's for sale now on the right forums, seen it cheap so bought i to make a few quid on.

Even though it's about a foot too short and 4 inches too wide a small part of me still hoped it may be adaptable for the Volvo :( :lol:

Whilst we're all here though, the going rate on any louvre seems to be £150+ and this one looks to be brand new, fitting kit, instructions etc. Gotta be worth that kind of money? I'd say I'm not sure there's a market for mk1/2 Escort rear louvres but maybe that's because they're like rocking horse shit?

My mate has had a fair bit of interest in it on the classic Ford forums etc where he's stuck it up for me though.

He stuck it up for £175, and he knows his mk1/2's. What do we reckon OTT? I know the blue oval brigade will dig deep on occasion. Tricky one IMO.

Once cagain, sorry for being a knob lol

Sounds fair to me dude.
Im sure a 300 version would fetch that, if not more.
And ford nerd pockets are a lot deeper than volvo equivilents.

The ford owners do pay over the odds for their toys.

Put it this way, if it fitted a capri, you'd get double that!
Rare Capri bits go for stupid money!

I got one off eBay 3 years ago for...well...I best not say, as I might want to sell it one day...
I know where there's another one...anyone interested? It'll be a for a mk1/2 rear screen.

As for Ford stuff, my favourite was the uncracked Sierra RS500 dash (supposedly different to a normal one?) on eBay a couple of years ago. £1150, if memory serves correctly. St. Edmund Trebus, that's expensive for a dash...

cheers
