Bought this car just over 12 month ago and spent a small fourtune on it in since i bought it. Bought it with the intensions of not having to spend any money on it so looked for 1 with a good shell and also 12 mot and also some tax but i'm to much of a fussy person so 1 thing lead to another and i ended up rebuilding the engine as i wasnt happy with it not that it was smoking or noisy or any thing i just felt it wasnt performing at its best so i took the engine out and fully rebuilt it.

Engine rebuild consists of engine out stripped and rebored, new mahle pistons, big end and main bearings, thrust bearings, ARP bolts, genuine ford oil pump and seals, felpro head gasket, piper 285 cam kit with double valve springs, timing belt and tensioner, water pump, genuine ford thermostat, new injectors, cold start valve, bosch fuel pump, genuine ford oil filter and fuel filter, running on mobil 1 15w/50 oil, black diamond clutch, clutch cable, ratchet and pawl replaced to, radiator reconditioned, K&N panel filter, installed a double capacity front mount intercooler, -31 actuator, chipped ecu and chipped fueling ecu, full stainless exhaust. I also refurbed the alloy wheels and put yokohama parada's all round on and they've only covered around 600miles.

I have alot of recipts for all the parts above but no labour charge as i have done all the work my self apart from the rebore and putting the pistons on the rods as i sent the block and rods to a specialist for this to be done.

Comes with 12 month mot and 2 month tax.
Any more questions please feel free to ask and viewings are very welcome.

My reason for sale is i have a mk2 escort witch i want to concentrate on so im selling my RS Turbo to fund this.

I have spent alot of time and money on this car to make it the best it possibly can be in every way, i will be sad to see it go but i want to do my mk2 escort up which is what i've wanted from a teenager.

£2500

What colour have the wheels been done mate? I like that a lot. I've got a red Escort Cossie and seriously tempted to have my wheels done the same colour.

gabbo

Hi mate, sorry like ive said i want the cash to fund my mk2 but thanks any ways

Cheers mate, I like old cars to look standard with tasteful mods.

Hi mate thanks for the comment. I think its the honda civic colour you see the Type R's in this colour, i think it looks really good on red.

RSMK4TURBO

Yea seen it around,think it had some 17"s on,did you get it off a lad called steve?Good luck with sale mate.

gabbo

Not sure of his name, he had a bold head and glasses lol. Yeah it had 16" 5 spokes on it but i put it back to standard.
Thanks again

kermitt

Wow you have done pretty much the same as I have over the last year. Its scary how much you are asking for compared to how much spent in doing the work. Don't think I will ever sell mine now its just not worth it.

gabbo

I know its cost me a small fourtune but im one for making the car as best it can be so it took a chunk out of my wage package every week. lol.
I was planning on keeping it for a long time but my escort mk2 is more important to me now.

Brynx

Wish i had the cash to buy it of you mate looks a really good example and a good price too best of luck with the sale anyway.

Fiddy

Looks a lovely car for the money. cheap at £2.5k
