I had a mk1 estate and while it was a great car they are quite thirsty which I think puts folk off, mine was a manual as well so this would be worse. If it's nice and clean underneath you've got a car for many years with little bother there. I bet the cruise does work on it as well, it's a bit of an odd system to get your head around if you've never used it. I thought the same about mine and my mate the same with his his Ghia X, from memory you get to the speed you want, lift off then press the cruise on button to set it, if you try setting it while you've got the throttle on it won't let you. Something odd like that. grogee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are pages and pages of them again tonight. Surely it can't be that difficult for eBay to set their systems to raise a red flag if an account with a couple of dozen transactions over several years suddenly lists thousands of vehicles for sale all at once? I've reported several of them but eBay seem to be rather slow off the mark with this type of thing. lesapandre, Barry Cade, AnnoyingPentium and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine what the guy selling this is like, really pushy, stupid shit dad jokes, lewd comments to any female in the party, stuck in 1994. Bet if he puts his foot down, he looks at you as if to say "look at this fucking animal" while it wheezes barely up to the limit of the road its on. Came across a few of these wankers back in the free ads days. I'm hoping he still has that pile of crap when the market settles and gets a series of people knocking his door offering £100 scrap for it. wesacosa and LT84 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BorniteIdentity Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 K reg madness. ( @egg ) I reckon it'd be quite satisfying - detwatting it. Stupid wheels in the nearest canal, stupid exhausts getting stamped on repeatedly. Likely to need a tickle here and there but viable. The problem? At £350 - it's going racing if you're not quick. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1132719040088900/permalink/5493367410690686/?sale_post_id=5493367410690686 wesacosa, egg and AnnoyingPentium 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grogee Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 That's weird. Someone's selling a Celica in my town and it's not me. This one has 56k on the clock and is low owner apparently.

BorniteIdentity Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 The masochist in me would STILL prefer a MK6 Escort Estate than a MK1 Focus Estate - despite them being worse by every single yardstick. I reckon this could be made to be very nice indeed. Just because it's Autoshite, doesn't mean you have to have a shit example of a shit car. Nothing to say you can't have a nice one. Blue interior seems inappropriate for a black car, which makes it all the more appealing. Tenmil Socket, Remspoor, rob88h and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BorniteIdentity Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 This looks a RIGHT babe, and I don't CARE that you're judging me. Accented yellow trim on the grey bumpers - offering sporting pretension. These really do look dated now don't they. Context photo below. I don't think for a moment that it's £1800 yet, but you'd definitely turn a few heads turning up to the kid's football in this. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202201161425379?make=Ford&include-delivery-option=on&postcode=sg193au&radius=1501&sort=relevance&advertising-location=at_cars&onesearchad=New&onesearchad=Nearly New&onesearchad=Used&model=Escort&page=1 carburettor, BertiePuntoCabrio, wesacosa and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
