Default Coming back to ford

After selling my old cabriolet last year(Faye's old white 1) I brought my 1st cossie 2wd and loved it but had a few bills etc to clear so parted with it for a corsa sri I've always wanted a escort turbo as my older sisters x boyfriends had them when I was younger and loved the sound the burble on tick over etc and how well they pull for an old 1.6 question is do I get 1 now I can't afford another cossie and I will also use it as my daily sensible driving but I'm addicted to old fords and always wanted 1 what do you all reckon I should do

Anyone able to help out with maybe looking at 1 for me if I do buy 1 as I'm not overly sure on what to look for etc like I said I won't be thrashing it about but I do take pride in my cars and tend to lavish them like most of us on here do but this will be my daily drive not a museum piece that never gets driven etc

I could help out, I've had 9 or 10. Hard to find nice cheap ones now though so be prepared to spend a few quid.
