1988 Ford Escort xr3i review from UK and Ireland
"Roaming rollercoaster for cheaper than a normal ride fair"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Just a general serivce kept this brialliant car out of trouble.
Alternator at 106,000
new exhaust and gearbox seals, ignition modules at about 105,000
cheap to do all of that.
General comments?
Absolutely stunning car for performance and looks all round brilliant.
Its true about the escort bug, once you drive one for a few miles you will never be without one.
I got the bug and pleased to say I still have it.
I bought this xr3i and fell in love with it until sumone made me a huge offer on it which I couldnt resist, but now deeply regret and would pay the world to get it back.
