Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1995 Ford Escort RS2000, finished in Aubergine, has been with its current owner for 11 years and benefits from a recent MOT. Though it has had substantial bodywork, including floorpan and sill repairs, it is described as a very original example.
Condition

The car has had significant bodywork repairs, including floorpan and sill replacement, suggesting corrosion issues were present. While the Aubergine paint is described as presenting nicely, the £5,000 spent on bodywork indicates it was not in top condition originally. There are some service records and older MOTs which is good. However, given the repairs needed, I believe 'Good' is the appropriate condition.
