colours: red black white(which i have) silver, blue
output:115ps around 113bhp
3+5door available
all 1.8 zetec engines,RS2000 style rear bumper spats and side skirts, boot spoiler front fogs honeycomb grille and front bumper grille(also on si),white dials but black clock(si too)half leather interior incl steering wheel and gearknob,pas, central locking, elec front windows, aircon(dunno if this is standard) cosworth style alloy wheels and if you`re lucky a heated front screen,if your really lucky it`ll work too
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
