AI Listing Summary
This 1971 Ford Escort, estimated between £25,000-£28,000, is a heavily modified Grp4 'WC' build featuring a potent Vagantune 1558 Lotus twin cam engine and numerous performance upgrades. It presents as a well-prepared classic for spirited driving or track use.

Condition
7
The car has undergone extensive modifications and strengthening, including a fully welded cage and a strengthened shell. While many components are new or recently serviced (engine, gearbox, clutch, brakes, suspension), the description mentions 'new front and rear bumpers, lights, and seals', implying the existing ones may have been worn or damaged. The 'poly windows' also suggest a departure from original, potentially due to wear or damage of original glass. The estimated value and the nature of the modifications suggest it's a modified classic intended for performance use rather than concours preservation, placing it in the 'Very Good' category.
