I know this because in 1996 I did not have the forsight to buy a Mk 2 Escort for 500 quid. I sometimes wonder what it would have been like to drive. Bear in mind that an E46 is leagues ahead of where a Mk 2 was. The thing with the BMWs is they have that 6 cylinder cool stuff going on. That's going to get rare. *see AE86 twin cam and Ford Escort Mk 2s

Just the BMW above. I have tried a couple of companies, just online quote tools and all come back with "unable to quote" bulls**t. Now it is not the engine size or my history so it has to be the age of car. So just wondering how people get around it?
