Escort Mk1 DE Luxe

[jackbarnes60]

Hi All, 

Recently logged back on here after a long while, after reading through lots of project topics and car updates its made me appreciate this site more than ever! Socials are just too opinionated nice for it to all be like minded people not digging people out for a change. 

thought id post my Mk1 that ive owned for a few years now 

The most standard escort i have ever come across with a little over 18,300 miles on the clock its been very well looked after previously and now i dry store in a carcoon to ensure its best preserved future  

1100 De Luxe (G Reg)

was lucky enough to be invited along to the heritage centre with the car for a photoshoot, amazing place for any ford fan  

vowed to keep this car as is and fight the urge to modify, holding on strong so far!

Love that it was serviced at a Brit. Leyland dealer sometime, no doubt early in its life.

It would have been a novelty for them having a car driving itself in for a service rather than on the back of a tow.

Awesome! Love it!! Great to see an unmolested, standard, non RS mk1. Be a shame to "modify" her.....

You're doing the right thing keeping it standard.  So few standard MKI and II's left now, I think they always look best how Ford intended.
