Escort Turbo Van, RS1600i lookalike *SOLD*
Due to timewasters and dreamers my van is still for sale.....
I have for sale this stunning Escort mk4 van which has been treated to a mk3 front end to look like a RS1600i. All work carried out has been done before I had it, to a high standard. Bodywork is exceptional for it's age, very bright and straight! The colour is rosso red but was originally white according to the V5. It's a pleasure to drive and pulls very well, running approximately 15psi of boost. There are 5 former keepers and the MOT is until 26th July 2010 but will put a fresh ticket on. No tax currently although I will include 6 months for the asking price. Here is the full spec:
Exterior
Escort mk3 bonnet, wings, front panel, crossmember, scuttle panel
RS1600i front splitter
Passenger door and rear doors delocked
New headlights
New amber indicators
Interior
Flocked plastic dashboard but unfortunately has lifted in a few places (see pics)
RS1600i front seats, which are worn but are very solid (seat covers included)
Saph coss steering wheel
Boost gauge in pillar pod
S2 carpet
Electric windows
Running gear
S2 engine covered 1000 miles since rebuid
Kent KCVH34 cam
S2 turbo covered 1000 miles
S1 loom which is all working
Pace intercooler
Chipped ECU
-31 actuator
New header tank
RS1600i gearbox with LSD
Scorpion exhaust
Suspension
Avo front adjustable shocks and lowering springs
Transit connect rear shocks and lowering blocks
New lower arms
New track rod ends
RS1600i adjustable anti-rollbar
Brakes
Cosworth 4x4 calipers
285mm grooved discs with separate bells
Braided brake lines
Standard van rear drums
Wheels/tyres
Refurbished 15" OZ alloys
New 195/50/15 Yokohama A539's
Price £2495ono
Any questions please don't hesitate to ask via email or give me a call on 07989632251. As I'm trying to shrink my collection, I would prefer a cash sale. However, I would consider a px.

Having seen the van in the flesh i can confirm its a good un. Folks do a doubletake with the Mk3 front end and the H reg!!!
Put together properly as well, unlike a lot of others.
Good luck with the sale Phillip!
