What an utterly weirdly worded advert (including trying to give the impression it’s based on the RS1700T)?

The whole ad sounds like it was written by the same Chinese fellow they employ to write descriptions for products sold on AliExpress.

Watch this go through the trade and end up £50k in 6 months time.
£13k for something which was totally crap in its day and time having made it crappier

If I was running that business I'd fire the cabbage that wrote that incomprehensible junk. And I'd stomp them in the car park on the way out.

It looks like a fake xr3 at first glance, odd decals, etc, just doesn't sit right somehow, even though it appears to be a genuine model.

If I was shelling out £12.5k on a warmed over mk3 Escort, I'd at least expect the tailgate to be fitted straight. Looks like it's pushed in on the offside above the light cluster.

It's priced accordantly.

To steal a quote which (I think) related originally to the Mk1 Range Rover :

“The only two man-made structures visible from space with the naked eye are the Great Wall of China & the shut lines on an Escort XR3 TF”
