W reg Ford Escort - spare/repairs or project

[Brian Hunt]

Hello, selling my beloved silver W reg Ford escort due to subframe being rusty. 1 owner for the last 16 years, all receipts for work done kept with service history. Forced sale due to no time to put into it or the means to repair. Offers welcome please. Car is on a drive in LE5 and ready to go.

Whilst I am not interested in it myself I feel it would be best to put engine size fuel trim level how many doors and if saloon, hatch , estate. And perhaps photos

As above, maybe interested if you have a few more details. Mk2 I guess? Thanks.

Sadly I think you are wasting your time asking. Brian Hunt last visited the forum 25 March and ignored isetta's advice to post more details.

I suspect the car is very probably a very early Escort Mk3 FWD as the OP says the 'Sub frame is rusty'

Perhaps a very late last model escort from year 2000 ish? I think there were some around then before the escort was finally finished

A 1980 'W' reg could be the last of the Escort Mk2's or the very first of the Mk3's.

It could be as you say a 'W' reg second time around (year 2000) but would the OP consider a 22 year old car to be special ? I suppose it could be to him.
