bomber1 Posted July 19, 2010 Report Posted July 19, 2010 my girlfreind has been bugging me for a car of her own to go to the shows with. only problem is that it needs to be an auto. so after seeing this on here last week we went and collected this 1300xl auto from escort tec this morning first picture is unloaded at the mot station. last couple are back home with its new freinds after two years being off the road all it failled on was the washer jets not working so will be back before the weekend is out for its retest plans are disc brakes then possable a colour change to ford velvet purple. what do you think?

trakevlyn Posted July 19, 2010 Report Posted July 19, 2010 looks very nice so does this mean she will be able to get home after the next Farnham meet before midnight
Admin Mk2Jo Posted July 20, 2010 Admin Report Posted July 20, 2010 I think that is fantastic news Jason ... the new Mr and Mrs Escort (and I like purple as well )
dockertrigger Posted July 20, 2010 Report Posted July 20, 2010 I often saw that parked on the driveway of a house near me, Sat there for quite a while, I often thought about knocking to see if it was for sale, It's looks great.
Boreham Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 the rise of the 4drs is imminant... get that YAGOLOGA away for it..it'd give it a rust bug...
jamie Posted July 23, 2010 Report Posted July 23, 2010 That looks like a solid car - good purchase! Was local to me - I saw it quite a lot and wondered if it was a daily driver or was permanently off the road. Kept meaning to knock and invite them along to a meet. I like it in blue mate.
bomber1 Posted July 23, 2010 Author Report Posted July 23, 2010 That looks like a solid car - good purchase! Was local to me - I saw it quite a lot and wondered if it was a daily driver or was permanently off the road. Kept meaning to knock and invite them along to a meet. I like it in blue mate. its been off the road for two years but i dont know why as i it to a realy harsh mot station and it pretty much flew its mot. tbh it has got a page of advisorys which is manely surface rust underneath and brakes not very good on the front (drums) which ive already got a set mk2 disc brake struts waiting to go on. i had a set off nearly new 2.8 capri discs kicking around so have got a caliper spacing kit from r/d to fit these. new pads to go in then thats the brakes sorted. ive had a set of 13in steels with nearly new tyres on so cleaned them up with a lick of paint. with a set of trim rings chrome wheel nuts and ghia center caps it should look and stop fairly good.
