Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1985 Ford Escort RS Turbo, while presenting as a Series 1, is mounted on a Mk4 Escort shell, a modification done early in its life. It requires recommissioning, paintwork improvement, interior refurbishment, and attention to the fuel injection system, though it boasts a rebuilt engine and performance upgrades.

Condition 

6

The vendor describes the car as being in “good condition,” though in need of some recommissioning after a period spent off the road. The paintwork would benefit from some remedial improvement, with minor scuffs present and some crazing noted on the rear spoiler. The interior trim requires refurbishment with the usual cracks in the dash top. The drivers and passengers' seats require attention, and the dash gauges are not working.

The car has been fitted with a fully reconditioned engine and injection system with a new Air Tech performance intercooler and a stainless-steel performance exhaust system.

The complete underside still has its white factory finish.
