I had one of those over 30 years ago. They weren't that great even then.

I'd have one in a heartbeat, one of my favourite Fast Fords.

I'd buy one, for about one tenth of the price.

I think some Fords are brilliant but that one always looked ‘already broken’ when new. Nothing lined up, even by the standards back then.

You have to work on a Mark 3 Escort to realise what rubbish they were/are. Really cheap and nasty. Equivalent Golfs were 1000 times better.

No doubt but I loved my series 1 XR3i, it looked much better than the Golf, in my view.
