WTD Mk1 Escort

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

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

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.

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.
