Default Cheap Mk4 Escort Cabriolet

MK4 Escort Cabriolet

£275

(pics taken last month)









Just run out of m.o.t + tax

mileometer says 34kish, so take that as 134k miles, but have no history to prove

was driven daily until it ran out of tax a couple of weeks ago

roof has NO RIPS/TEARS and is pretty much mint

rs turbo kit

body needs some paint, some areas the paint looking abit tatty, may t-cut ok, havent tried. but no bad rust showing, just the odd pea sized bit. no rust as far as i can see underneith, battery tray looks like it was repaired a while back.

comes with the following reclining bucket seats in it




will NOT come with the rs turbo alloys as i need them, but with these 13's (came on car when i bought it)


has a DTM style backbox, sounds ok, not too loud, never seen one with this tailpipe on a mk4 before.

Engine runs ok, is getting on abit now though, uses oil and smokes a bit on start up (valve stem seals) like i said earlier i have done 6k miles in 3 months, and in that time i have topped up the oil,changed a wheel bearing and put on a recon steering rack.

There is a droaning that gets louder the faster you go, from a real wheel bearing.

Havent tried for an m.o.t, as i have no spare cash, and i am now insured on a family members car. i need to sell to buy a shell for my s2.

this car was bought as a runaround till i sorted my rs turbo. ive tried to be as honest as possible, any questions pm me

can take more pics if nesessary

car is in Grantham, Lincs

chassis is ok, boot floor ok, bit of rust under both rear lights, sills look fine, engine bay has been welded on battery tray. there is a small dent on passenger door.

will not need welding for mot, but will need a wheel bearing at least.

ill be honest, i dont expect the wellers to sell on there own, thats why i have put them back on the cabby. i may mot it this weekend, but if i get 12 months on her the price will increase accordingly obviously.


if she doesnt pass then at least ill have a list to show whats needed.


just about to take some more pics with my cam, will be up later

Is the cab still for sale and have you put a MOT on her. Are you gonna leave the RS Wheels on the car now then.

Could you email me at saxogal2005@yahoo.co.uk as im interested in purchasing a cab quite quickly.

Many Thanks
