I know its a long shot but... Im looking for a MK1 Escort, I've always wanted one and i'm not looking to hotrod it, just use it as a daily.

Light Resto's are fine, on the road is better, tax or mot not required.

Looking at around the £1500 to £1800 mark for budget. Hopefully you can make this young'un a happy man.

Cheers,
-Josh

If you find one in less than beyond repair condition for that money I want one too!

Do you know how much MK1's go for
They are really, really expensive, i have seen real sh*t go for £2500

I would like one aswell

there's one on ebay for £1600, and it basically a bare shell

for that kind of money you may get a rough 4 door, far less desirable than the 2 door

'If you find one in less than beyond repair condition for that money I want one too!'
Me too. Though I'd prefer a diamond white mk 2 rs2000 if pos. Basically they're really expensive for what they are particularly the two doors cos of the rally brigade.

will be over budget, but i'm wanting one of these

Put me down for 2, I want one and so does a mate! Cash waiting if you can find them at this price! Will collect anywhere in Europe !

Ok, if I win the Euro Lottery this Friday I may order 4, one for Blake82(who pointed me this way), one for mate and 2 for me ( got to have a tarmac one and a gravel one) !

Please remind me to buy Euro Lotto tickets!!!

not that Ebay is the best place to purchase but this is the £1500 car and it will probably get bidded up near the end.
