  1. 2 lady owners from new, mot until Feb 2018. 78900 miles, clean solid car,1300l, purple had a new wing and it's a slightly different colour so it would need painting same as car, overhaul paintwork is good, tidy to run out mot then do a few jobs, will need a new clutch in the near future, one seat ripped but gen Ford cover supplied,rear bench good but back one worn on top edge so will need recover,wheels just been refurbed with 4 new Yokos done about 50 miles still got bobbles on, had new strut full length plates at some point, ,face of radio with electric Ariel, doors have electric motors in for central locking,( alarm supplied but not fitted,but got diagram the central locking works from the alarm) all switches lights etc work,does Drive nice, reason for sale circumstances now allow me to look for Rs cars,hence looking for mk1 rs2000 cash or part swap this plus cash, the car does need a tidy up perhaps next year but it's solid and genuine £10500 if anyone fancies it before flea bay. Mark 07419119552 west mid. All decals can be taken off without damage to paint if required
  2. Like the rest of the uk I am after a mk 1 escort, I can't afford all these really nice ones so if I give my budget I won't waste anyone's time , around £10.000 could go up a bit more for the right car, max of £12000 Would take a 2 door project if it's solid or a good 4 door on the road, I don't mind a 4 door project but not at 2 door prices , I have the cash ready and I don't mind traveling if someone has the right car, must be rhd uk car,manual Mark 07419119552 west mid

  5. Sorry mk1 escort
  6. Right hand drive wiper motor needed, working 2 speed, also 2 wiper arms,don't matter about the blades,
  7. G I got some pm sent
  8. Old skool ford stand with front wheel drive cars on it, don't make sense it's supposed to be before front wheel driven cars and plastic bumpers, if your allowing fiestas on the stands then you may as well allow sierras ,there's no fiesta in the land better than a standard Sierra cosworth , at least it's rwd and most top escorts have there engine in them or everybody would if they could afford them,the fiestas are some peoples pride and joy and they may appeal to them but they don't mix with rwd cars,totally different type of thing altogether, I say keep within what the furom stipulates or don't bother ,
  9. Yes mate it's turned up thanks,the post here is always slow,
  10. Got no stand pass unless my postman is on a go slow,
  11. mk1 or mk2. Around 4000, don't matter if something needs building up so long as it's painted and all there,will travel cash waiting,
  12. There bonded. On and stuck for good, if you do get one off like I did you have to bond the new one in exactly the same place otherwise the window roller don't travel properly, the easy option is to just get another window with a good support.
  13. Ok mate it's sold thanks
  14. Hi, I am about to put a complete steering column on flea bay when I have took the pictures Tom, I want £100. Because it has the steering lock with a key( one sold on flee bay for £70 that was just the lock alone, ) the other day, let me know if your interested, , I am in West Midlands don't know postage but I would say £15.
  15. Hi vista would you put me on a reserve list ,if anyone drops out,I am booked in but did not add to this list because I was not sure I could make it and did not want to take up a place then not turn up,if not I will see you there
  16. Hi mate I have a late type 9 5 speed ( electric speedo) £250 can take to breakfast meet at Shelley Walsh if your interested. I am in brierley hill
  17. It's not the exhaust that makes the engine pop and fart , just advance the dizzy if that's all your after, the car will only sound as good as the engine, for a good sound get a nice stainless janspeed and play with the dizzy until it pops when you change down,trouble is its not meant to do that if it's set right on a rolling road ,that's why they change jets
  18. When people start talking 20 or 30 grande for what is an old car then it's no surprise the thieves want them, as there going to be easy to steal compared to a good modern car that would fetch less money, I have. A good mk1. 2 door but I don't think they are worth that sort of money but because it costs so much to build a good one then you would want your money back,it's the people making the money for the parts who are pushing up the prices,they Seem to think if you got an escort your loaded and willing to pay them money for anything ford related,,
  19. I don't see marking any parts a good idea because there are too many people willing to except cheap parts to do there own car, years ago dogs were just fed meat to keep them quiete or like my aunts yard dog smashed over the head with a big bar, you would need a real good dog to even scare the thieves,my experience is they still find ways, you have to try all ways you think to slow them down but like someone said they are even getting past gps,
  20. These tyres are on my fast road escort, wet or dry they work fine,the thing is tyres are meant to be driven not stuck on wheels in garages, if there was a major problem then surely Yokohama would investigate, it's all about how you can drive the car and at what speed, it does look like the guy in the u tube add did have a problem but that could be oil he picked up off the road or something else,anything on the rear or an escort will twitch at speed and in the wet, v blade tyres I found were the best but there rotational ,
  21. Well we made it mate, see you soon, the rs 1600i is always welcome with me,not rwd but it's a great car ,still looks at home in between the escorts, and you beat the rain,I'm away for 2 weeks let me know when your out again and I can meet up early this time,probably be the Dudley arms in 3 weeks, the lad with the White rs turbo always goes there,
  22. I have a few in the shed if that's all she's after,
  23. If it's wet ,if it's dry, no matter what I'm out, wetter the better, nice to have a sunny day but when it's wet it's more fun without breaking speed limits, we don't live in a dry hot climate so get some good tyres and leave that other thing at home,at least you can drive the car how ford made it, sideways, probably wet mate so I will go from home don't fancy a convey with civics,
  24. Count me in I am going anyway
