  1. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1981-FORD-ESCORT-RS-2000-VENETIAN-RED-/301571988440?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4637175bd8#ht_348wt_1090 I see the spammers are at it again.... they have listed this RS on Fleabay now
  2. I remember the last set I bought directly from Ford and paying just £43.55 plus VAT each. Then again... that was 1987 Better than money in the bank now the prices wanted
  3. Just ordered another set for my other Mk1
  4. HI, Just fitted them today and they certainly don't need as much slam as the other new ones that I bought from a well known Ebay Escort source months ago. I noticed that the these new ones have the crushable foam rubber tube which is not as big in diameter compared to the others I bought and these new ones have small holes every so often which helps in my opinion if any air is trapped it should not be like pushing against a balloon if you get the drift etc. (They still seal all round when looking from inside the car even though slightly smaller crushable seal part etc). My doors on my Mk1 shut with still a little extra effort than being A1 perfect but certainly not as much as before and im pretty sure that when they settle in to shape, they will be even easier to close through time. All in, I would recommend them and I think I will order another set for my other Mk1 escort, especially at that price.

They are promoted in the listing and with a video of being as easy to close not like the others for sale. I will update if anyone is interested, with my results after fitting.
  6. Welcome mate,
  7. There is a freshly built 1700 xflow for sale on Ebay for £1195 which I was considering but I went to keep my original one reconditioned costing £1800 + VAT for a sililar spec going down the unleaded route etc. Link below http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ford-crossflow-x-flow-xflow-kent-1700-engine-piper-cam-vernier-mk1-escort-mk2-/281448173771?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item41879e50cb There is another just listed on the lower side starting at £350 Link below http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Xflow-1700cc-Engine-/181560549579?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2a45da20cb
  8. This is my first post and joined over a year ago ..... (1 less to the countdown before I can sell now LOL!) I joined mainly for the excellent info and I have just used the messaging side of the forum to enquire/buy items for sale advertised on here.
