hi folks

As the title says im a newbie to the forums.im from the far north of scotland,at the moment im driving a civic vti,i have been for a while now and think its time for an upgrade.i havn't had a ford before and im fancying getting maself an escort cossie, so im looking for some advice on what to look for and what to avoid.i got a budget of about 15k and im looking for a small turbo version in ash black or petrol blue.any advice would be much appreciated

thanks guys
