General comments?
1999 escort 1.6 16v flight the excellent zetec engine 0-60 in 8.4 seconds top speed 140 I've done 135 so it is capable.
Cheap insurance for the power.
Mine is ex-police so it is has a modified engine will beat 2.0 BMW on the lights boy racers don't have a chance.
Good price for a 1999 car with all the extras.
Very good car for the money even though the engine has done 135000 it is still going strong.
