They were surprisingly popular usually in that light blue colour they did. 

My mate had a really early mk4 escort diesel 3dr estate, awesome car he drove literally all over Europe and nowt went wrong. 

Twas a 1.6d which really were unbreakable.

Hmmmm not so sure on that one. 

I had a 10v coupe which was a lovely car to drive but nothing special performance wise.

I'd bet that was basic cossie money back then as well which would have blitzed one of those. 

Rare old thing though.

No - it’s 1987. The Cortina front continued a long time after the Sierra launched with the p100

Your job sounded fun.

Past tense.  I did a year mainly working from home, of project management for them.  Then after 12 years of freelance contracting, decided to go permie, somewhere else.

Anyone near Romford able to give this the once over?

On paper, it looks ideal for us - 7 seater, with tow bar and LPG but I'm sure it been doing the rounds on eBay and was last on Gumtree for double the price....how fucked is that box???

This was advertised at £1000 a while back with a fucked box. It didn't sell for a month or so, it was then readvertised with less aggressive wording about the gearbox. Looks like this guy bought it and has stuck with the softer wording

I would be steering clear

Memories of a college mate's absolutely identical one (minus a drink induced  the roof dent). Four up being thrashed through the Milton Keynes roundabout maze after a fellow back seat passenger gave the internationally recognised hand gesture for 'wanker' to the tail gating truck driver.  Cue a very British and therefore utterly shit re-enactment of Duel as a loaded Astra 1.3 was found to be wholly ill-suited to a drag race with a lightly loaded 7.5 tonner.

I bought this car in November 1993, and it has always been garaged and has not been out in the rain since 1995, I am selling because I have trouble getting out of it (I am in my 82nd year) it had a new clutch within the last 1000 miles. It has a hood which has not been fitted for the last 25 yrs
