1996 Ford Escort Cabriolet Mk6 1.6i Ghia with 105k on the clock. Located Market Drayton Shropshire.Bought as an occasional winter hack, and was a total surprise. I have enjoyed every journey in this, it has done its job admirably and sadly now its time to go. If I had the time and the room it would stay.
Good points
Reliable
Very comfortable seats
Brilliant heater
Cheap to run
Excellent performance (my first zetec)
Superb gearbox
New starter motor
Oil and filter last week
Newish battery
Tyres ok
Workshop manual and Handbook
Hood tonneau
Front offside wheel bearing replaced
Bad points
MOT runs out 1st April
Have taken it for MOT - failure on rear offside damper, emissions possibly a new catalytic converter required, wiper blades, and attention to handbrake. I have priced the parts needed Rear dampers at £28.99 each, cat at £79.99 total £138. plus wipers and whatever is needed to sort the handbrake.
This model in my view is a future classic, despite mot requirements it drives well.
Note the existing number plate is not included in the sale. It will have the number the DVLA is in the process of issuing.
