Ash Black EsCos - Updated
Specs...
- first reg 14/05/1995
- 1 previous owner
- 49000km (30625 miles)
- FFSH
- accidentfree and never been tuned
Got a "bit" carried away with the cleaning stuff again
Still have to put the spoiler, hockeysticks and splitter back on and the wheels could do with a refurb.
And yes, I still have the original Fordradio that came with it
But still... I'm pretty happy

looks lovely, really like ash black and the hex trims just OWNS the leather.
What's happened to the splitter half way through the pics though?
Oh, and the steering wheel is on the wrong side

Front spoiler had the "normal" wave-syndrom 
A guy we know is trying to patch it up a bit.
Hope it's back soon as the car looks like it doesn't have it's teeth in at the moment

Thanks all
We already found this car in february. That's the reason the 3d suddenly was up for sale
The amount of luck we had this time is just incredible.
Finding an LHD Cos is not difficult, but we wanted a low mileage, low owner, as-mint-as-possible, standard car and that narrowed down the list of cars...
Spotted this EsCos on a saturday, travelled over 300miles to see it one week later and pretty much bought it there and then.
We were very honest to the owner about the Sierra we still had and told him we would take the Escort but had to sell the Sierra first.
"No problem, I want this car to go to a good home, so I'll take it of the net and keep it for another 2 months so you have some more time to sell your car"
2 times the Sierra was "definitely sold", 2 times... well... nothing happened in the end
Luckily the 3rd guy that claimed he would buy it (Jack from JP Cars) could actually put the money on the table!
2 days after the 3d was gone we went to pick up the EsCos

Hi Deb,
As I already said on www.ford-world.nl , a lovely EsCos!
In a stunning condition and with the best engine!!!
What are the plans?? Or do you want to keep it original?
Where did you find it?
Hope we'll see us again somewhere

Thanks for your replies
We're going to keep it original.
Just don't know what to do with the exhaust...
Don't want it to end up all rusty so maybe it will be replaced by a Magnex

Finally fitted the new spoiler, splitter and hockeysticks.
Car looks so much better now
Of course it being a Cosworth I think the waterpump is on it's way but hey
