Amazing little Escort mk2 1600 Sport, Collectors car?

The vehicle has been garaged since it arrived in the UK, currently in my heated garage. It has spent 99. 9% locked up during the time it has been in the country nearly 7 years ago. This is a very difficult decision for me, slimming my collection down to one car, selling due to ill health. It really needs preserving in my opinion. Having said that for the new owner I can guaranty it feels like your driving a new Escort mk2 1600 Sport straight out of a Ford dealership back in the 80's!

I'm lead to believe the body shell was no different to the Escort RS versions of the mk2, all strengthening in mint condition consummate with miles. Please note, the MOT history is showing a discrepancy! All mot's were recorded in miles. The high reading miles is due to the previous owner fitting a mk2 UK spec RS 2000 dash pod clock binnacle to help with reading MPH instead of KM! This worked to read correct UK speed however none of the dash warning/ indicator lights worked! I changed the binnacle back to the original unit supplied to this car and the RS clocks are in the boot. This helps to back up displayed true km's/ miles of the vehicle, suffice to say that South African imports rarely come with service history, so minimal paperwork, but in truth the car its self does the talking, as it were!

In summery this car is stunning, original and super low miles, colour is Seasand and its a late build of 1984 and UK registered on a B plate, all the above making the vehicle very unique. I think the UK models stopped at W/ X Registration, 1981 ish?

Feel free to Watts App me on the details below, I can send over 100 detailed pictures and a video of the vehicle.

PX for a BMW Z3M or Z4M Coupe or Roadster.

Please see my other items as I am selling another two classics I own reducing my collection to just one vehicle as I hardly drive them due to health.
