#1
![Default](https://passionford.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi guys, newbie here...
I going to look at a 1994 MK5 escort 1.8TD tomorrow to buy it. Its got 90k miles and has a full history up to last year, cam belt done last year also.
I know its not the sportiest of wagons but I have a MK2 Golf GTi for sporting about in and need this as a reliable runabout for work and some light towing.
Just wondering if some kind chap (or indeed chapess) could give me a few pointers as what to look for tomorrow?
Its only a few hundred quid but I dont want to be buying a bottomless pit lol
Also, what are these engines like on the reliablity stakes?
Thanks!
