How can you be a fool when you'll make profit on it ten years down the line. I dont believe that Ford will ever make a car like the escort cossie again. You cant be a fool for making profit!
Only as long as fools will pay that much.

Ten years down the line petrol will be illegal. Then you won't be very happy sitting on £25k's worth of Escort.

If I was a Ford enthusiast, I'd have a couple of posters, a Ford t-shirt and maybe a couple of brochures of classic Fords.

Must be murder seeing the telly properly over it
Maybe they've got a specialy adapted sofa.
Hope it's a big wing - whale tale would make a very convenient table for tea and custard creams etc.

More like 100 times
BTW, RS500 was £22,000 when new Jimbo.
Standard big wing was sixteen grand.
Good investment, one owner garaged low mileage minters still go for nearly that now.
