Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1996 Ford Escort RS2000, finished in Radiant Red, presents a mixed bag. While the body is straight and the car benefits from a recent, advisory-free MOT, indicating good mechanical condition, the car's cosmetic condition is less impressive, requiring some work to bring it up to a high standard.
Condition
5
The car has some age-related marks and damage on the bumpers, and the paintwork deteriorates upon close inspection. The wheels would need refurbishing to be perfect. The interior is worn but presentable. However, it has a recent MOT and appears mechanically sound.

Description
Description Very desirable MK6 Ford Escort RS2000, first registered in May 1996, this fast Ford comes with cloth interior, worn but still presentable, finished in Radiant Red, the bodywork looks straight overall, there are some age related marks and a couple areas of damage on the bumpers, the paintwork looks good from afar but deteriorates on approach.
Sitting upon a set of 17" 15 spoke wheels finished in satin black, these suit the car well, but a perfectionist would want to get them refurbished.
The odometer shows 29,049 miles, a quick look back through its MOT history shows this is actually 129,049, coming with an advisory free MOT until May 2025, this RS2000 is ready to use and improve or it is a perfect example to take to bare bones and turn it into something really special.
