1998 Ford Escort 16 valve GTi review from UK and Ireland
"She's my baby"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front wishbones and bushes went first.
Now the clutch is on its way out.
General comments?
The car does run like she was built for.
My interior is mint all colour coded red.
Got few mods- 4" twin exit exhaust & angel eyes.
She can really handle the road when you floor it.
