Condition

Based on the description, the car is described as original and unmolested, with a stainless steel exhaust being the only non-original part due to the originals being unavailable. It's presented well with white paint, velour trim, and bucket seats. It's been owned and cherished by RSOC members and is in lovely condition throughout. The car is structurally rust-free, which is a significant positive for 90s Escorts. The MoT test certificate supports this statement. However, without a detailed inspection, determining the exact condition is difficult. Given this information it would appear to be in very good condition, but this could be improved with minor reconditioning.
