Default Escort GTi

Fell back in love with the Orion, so this has gotta go so I can concentrate on that!

3 door Escort Gti in pepper red, 1998.
MOT Feb '09
Tax Aug 08
67,000 miles

Weitec coilovers with warranty
17x7 oz chrono's with good kumho ecstas
Smoked headlamps and side repeaters.
Stainless steel magnex from the cat back.
Vectra front splitter
Rear window tints.
Toad alarm

Usual Gti refinements - Half leather in good nick, PAS, Electric Windows, Air Con

Has receipts for recently replaced gearbox and clutch (i think) from Ford.

Also comes with original shocks, with lowering springs.

Bad bits:

Front bumper a shade too light for rest of car but not to obvious, few little stone-chips
One tyre has slight wear along the edge of wall, will need replacing soon











£: Offers, but looking for a quick sale!

arches are solid enough, won't need looking at for a while yet.

very very slight bubbling, only noticeable if your down on your knees looking for it

You were mad to even consider replacing your Orion with this jelly-mould thing.
Glad to see you've recovered from that madness.
