Please help, Urgent.

My friend has a Ford Escort sport 1300, 1971. Three pieces of information are missing on the Inspection certificate. 1. Maximum loaded weight. 2. Front axle weight. 3. Rear axle weight. Could someone please help me or at the very least guide me to someone who could. Many thanks in advance. Ron.

'71 is a bit early for a "Sport", I thought '73/74 was when they were available

I had  '74 Sport in Daytona Yellow!

I think it was launched late 71. "Car" magazine did a twin road test of the 1300 Sport versus Opel Kadett in their January 1972 issue.

I stand corrected, I only have recollections of "M" & "N" registrations.  And I wonder how much "WYE8N" might change hands for now ?

Hi, thanks for replying but the link does not work, I have been trying for the past three hours without success.

Try a search on :

Once you have the home page just drill down to the Fords and the model and you should get to it that way.

Funnily enough, I associate it mainly with that period too, possibly because a mate swapped his Mini 1275GT for a Sport about then. Prices - I hate to think, seen some crazy figures for Mk 1s!
