The handle is for the MK7 (last shape) Escort. The central locking dosn't work and the motor was disconnected so there was nothing really in the way. Also the switches for the windos are on the centre consule so taking of the panel is really really easy.

I think the problem with Scorpios on the used market is they will drink a bit of petrol, have quite high insurance costs and if things do wrong they won't be that cheap to fix. I guess most people looking at sub £2000 cars don't have much money so they may not be able to run a granada sized car this probably hurts the resale value. I guess the only thing thats really wrong them though is they don't have that BMW or Mercedes badge on them
