I bought this car as a run around whilst rebuilding the engine in my GTO, however the GTO build has gotten out of hand and I have decided to buy a second car to keep and run along side the GTO rather than just use as as a stop gap.
Model: Ford Escort LX 1.6 Zetec
Year: 1995 (N)
Mileage: 51k
MOT: 1st October 2016
GOOD POINTS: 8 months MOT, just tax and insure it to drive away. Uprated front speakers as the originals were blown when I bought it. Sony CD/USB radio head unit fitted with aux out and pre outs for a sub woofer. (original radio will come with it) It has always started first time for me no matter what.
BAD POINTS: will need a new exhaust for next MOT as the one on it is blowing a bit. Temperature gauge doesn't working but its never over heated. Despite the low mileage (online MOT check backs it up as genuine) the drivers seat is very worn. Judging by the wear on the door card as well, I think one of the previous owners was of big build. When I bought it, none of the locks worked so I changed the door and boot locks. The drivers one doesn't unlock the car so you have to use the passenger side. There is a separate (red) key for the ignition and petrol cap. I do have the matching ignition lock. both rear arches are rusty but not massively, see pics. car is covered with scratches and a few small dents here and there also a cracked rear bumper. Lastly, although when cold the car runs perfectly, it does stutter and hesitate when warmed up. I only use it locally really but have done a few motorway trips in it and it will cruise at 70 no problem. As stated earlier it always starts first time hot or cold and because I never planned to keep it long I never looked into it.
