havent a clue on build dates for them
common body problems are rust at the bottom of the front wings as the drain holes clog up easily, rusty arches, rusty A pillars havent seen many like this but did have an si which went around the check strap, not least they rot from the inside-out on the rear chassis rail where the rear beam mounts onto it, mainly the N/S
overall good nippy cars

 

They also did them in a dark metallic green because my mate had one, dunno what the actual colour was called though, His had remote locking too but the key was goosed.

Charcoal Green. One of the nicest greens I've ever seen.

 

good man mike.....

saves me typing it all out lol

 

Escort GTI's were made from 1994 (M plate) up to 1999 (T plate) they also made them in METALLIC RED. alot of my friends that had these as well as me all had issues with the fuse box.

 

Mine was charcoal green lol I actualy loved that colour but didn't see sence in doing so much body work and keeping it looking standard,

 

97 and 98 only I'm 99.99999% sure although as with any car there may be some late registered cars, there's plenty of replicas about, and by t reg ford no longer made a three door escort
