1988 Ford escort RS turbo For Sale

Ford escort 1. 6 RS turbo in red
3 owners from new last owner had it 27 years and did less than 7k miles!
49k miles from new
2 original ford keys
Service history stamped up to 42k miles and a box full of history with letters from previous owners ect
Totally original unrestored car, never seen a modification in its life!
Ideal collectors car
Drives like brand new!
Been On and off the road from 1993 last mot was 2008 and it’s always been garaged, the last mot it did less than 100 miles.
It’s Still wearing its original paint from the ford factory and every panel is straight with no distortion all the door gaps etc are to ford spec
The car has never been welded and doesn’t need any it has had a very light coat of wax oil underneath but this looks to have been done very early in its life to preserve it from corrosion the sills are straight it’s never been jacked up on them like most suffered from.
The car isn’t concourse however it’s not far from being that way if you wanted to go down that route?
But the car is genuine and you just don’t see them like this anymore! The bootfloor is unbelievable it has the inspection stickers from factory and the spare wheel is like it’s never Been used and has an orginal Goodyear nct2 tyre
The engine bay is untouched and the engine is quite no mods the only thing that is different is the HT leads they are after market
Inside is showroom condition! The seats are mint and the rears look like they have never been sat in
The carpet is like new it even has a new ford smell to it, also it has the original rubber waffle mats, roof lining is perfect and straight
This car has never been smoked in you can tell and it’s been garaged all it’s life
It has to been seen to appreciate just how nice it is.
There is a few little marks on the paint work nothing major tho and it’s character to the car as the paint is original so would be a shame to start painting panels for little marks so these have been left untouched and the bumpers have a very slight sun fade but with a professional polisher would come up lovely however the bumpers was painted differently the the body back in the day as they used a plastic paint for them.
The wheels have never been painted and all 4 tyres match to the age related Goodyear eagle nct2 tyres with plenty of tread on them
Everything works as it should on the car it’s just had a new battery with round post adaptors so still retaining the peg connectors on the wiring if you wanted to go back to that style battery for concourse etc...
The headlights and spots are genuine carellos 640 with genuine Ford indicators and rear light clusters
The floor numbers are factory with no rust on them the stereo works perfect and picks up local stations
I’ve replace them exhaust for a iMaf one that is identical to the original as the old one was corroded and painted the back box to ford factory spec
