While it has a V5C and is MoT exempt, its history is largely unknown, and it has not been tested in the UK. It is rated 'Good' as it is a functional classic vehicle but likely requires some reconditioning due to its age, import status, and unknown maintenance history.

1599cc, petrol.
This interesting Ford Escort MkI van was imported to the UK from Australia in 2022.
Not much is known about its history, but it comes with a few papers relating to its registration in New South Wales, its shipping to the UK, and its V5C which records zero former keepers.
An Australian number plate is also in the back.
According to its current and previous registration paperwork, the Kent petrol engine is 1599cc, which would make it a later transplant offering more power than its original (1.1 or 1.3-litre) spec.
