Default Series 1 rs turbo

I bought the car last week and was planning to use it as my daily but after getting it back to my workshop I've realised it's far too clean for me as I'll never be able to keep it looking like it does.

The previous owner bought the car in 2006 in the condition it's in and used the car for 2 yrs and covered around 3000 miles in it. Due to family issues and then losing his job the car was put into storage after ford fair 2008 and left there until last week when I bought it.

I put it in for an mot last week and it failed on a couple of bulbs, no brake pipe clips, rear light bad earth and emissions. Everything has been done and it's back in for mot this coming Tuesday.

The mileage is 123,000 which I believe to be genuine as I have lots of paper work and mots to back this up. It has had a restoration at some point in its life inc new front wings and all 4 floor pans. It is near standard with spax shocks and springs, chip, magnex exhaust, pro alloy front mount cooler and a few polished bits in the engine bay.

The interior is very very clean and the front seats I would say are concours condition. The dash is uncracked but some dick had fitted a pod mount to the top of the dash leaving some screw holes visible now.

The engine had a rebuild on 97k and the turbo was rebuilt 98k and there fore have only done around 25k. It's has an up rated GEARS gearbox with rerated LSD, heavy duty bearings and cost £700

Only things I've found wrong are the temp gauge doesn't work and the paint has cracked in a couple of places in the engine bay and on the doors

The price is £7000 ono

I may be interested in a swap or p/ex cash either way as I wouldn't mind another cossie

The car is still at the garage and will be available for viewings there so you can use the ramp to inspect it. Saturdays would probably be best but any day/time is fine as long as I'm given good notice

Thanks Billy

Would you be interested in a deal for a Mk2 Escort? in the for sale section.

Cheers
