They are a standard production model in South Africa. Basically a MK3 Escort and there are loads of them about there. If you get one from a dry area like Jo'berg then it shouldn't be rusty either.

I have a H plate mk4 not a mk3 version. The Mk3 was a production car/pickup but the Mk4 was a test run.


This is how she was when i had her sent over.

That is an original Mk3 P90 you can tell from the drop down rear, short doors, and side windows


Very nice!

If you have one of these you wouldnt cut and shut it about to fit any other engine than what fits from factory

Its pointless putting a cossie lump init cos if you wanted to do that you could cut a combi about or a van etc.. b
