Series One Escort..
Morning,
Ive recently been looking into getting a series one escort turbo, have heard the engines arent anything too special though and can be tempremental.
Basically im not looking to tune it etc, and i was wondering if anyone could give me any advice as to looking for things that prove its originality and or general faults to be aware of.
It will be a daily runner, from experiance how do people fare with them?
Cheers in advance for any replies.
Rob

No power steering, no mod cons.
Stick to something new and reliable for the main car and keep the S1 as a toy!
