How Many Montego E86 & E85?

Post by Big Tav » Mon Jan 22, 2018 1:15 am

Hi guys, I am looking to get a Montego E86 or a 3.0si E85 if the right one pops up.

Does anyone know how many were sold in the UK in both models?

I am just trying to work out how realistic it is to wait for the right car to come up or if I should realistically consider other colours as well.

I don't want to miss out on a good Silver or Black car for example while I am waiting for one of 25 cars in the UK to come up for sale if that makes sense.

Please let me know if anyone sees or hears of a good one that might be coming up for sale soon. Open to Auto and Manual!

Thanks :)

I have a 3.0si montego blue roadster that's NOT for sale, so that's potentially 71 roadsters.
Good luck with finding one, and great choice of colour
3.0si roadster. Requisite stubby. Sound gen mod. LED numberplate lights. LED boot strip. Interior lights LED too. ZHP gearknob. Daily drive :driving:
Motor in boot. Bilstein B8 dampers. New radio, much better sounds :thumbsup:

Hehe
Is that what this thread is gonna turn into?

Ok :) my coupes a keeper.

So 70 roadsters and 334 coupes to pick from....and counting.

This has the potential to be the most boring “me too” thread in the world!
Glad I’m a part of it :oops:

Nice one Mr Wilks, I’m glad that car ended up with an enthusiast and won’t disappear into a spiral of post eBay neglect!

Thanks for the replies. This thread has taken a interesting turn!

I am enjoying the pics though! I know there are a lot of keepers being posted in this thread but I am still optimistic as I have sold at least 3 or 4 "keepers" in my time. Things change! :)

Mines also a keeper, nothing out there compares with the looks and poke it has.
