for sale... Maybe.. Basically, as much as i dont want to sell it, the car i really want has popped up for sale.. and he wants it gone by the 20'th.. So im hoping to sell my Volvo by the 20'th and buy the new car, if i cant then i miss out and i keep the 340

It's a red Mk3 3 Door 1.7

37K Miles from new with MOTS to prove and a HUGE service history! Elderly owner before me that garaged it its whole life.

Good bits:
Very good paint, no real fade at all
Drives very smooth and like it should
Underside is spotless, no rust at all, Fully undersealed.
Completley standard bar the wheels.
Everything works apart from the heated seats! Even the Econ gauge

Bad Bit:
Slight scab on rear drivers side arch, its still perfectly solid just paint peeled off and surface rust by the looks of it



Really not wanting to get rid, but i badly want this new car!

MOT till December? Not had an advisory its whole life so far
Tax till end of December also.

Idealy.. Id like £800 for it, Thats what i paid and ive done nothing to do it bar the wheels/drive and enjoy it.

I changed the oil and filter when i got it (Do it with every car i buy for safe of mind) Despite it having FSH

Chris and Speedy have both seen the car in person

Any questions feel free to ask on here, PM me or Text me on 07564046341

I dont answer numbers i dont know im afraid so you will have to text first

i have got the guy to agree to hold my new car untill i sell this and free up money, so i will definatley be selling it im afraid

I think £800 is a fair price for the condition, and i will be sad to see it go b ut ive wanted this new car for years

cheers, Dan

I'll have a gander at service history tommorow mate

But off the top of my head it hasnt been done yet? It's only on 37K, Last service was 35 i think.

And im honesntly open to offers if they're fair, a friend is waiting on me to sell this/buy his car

Steves Holding out for a 360 so mines still for sale.

What... you mean take a perfectly low mileage, great running engine and put a troublesome one in?? Looks like a really clean car, surprised it's not gone!

GOES FAST THO, INNIT.

I "demonstrated" my car to dan. Safe to say he might be converted forever

Remind me how long it was after a ride in Fake you converted 13

Hush you guys! I would like to keep it but ive wanted a Mk4 escort since i was 14, And im not missing this one, its awesome

So unfortunatley, its for sale...

I'd take 750 i guess, or a fair offer, it needs to go sadly

Troublesome you say eh? I've only had problems with my drivetrain, and that's because it wasn't built properly! Nowt to do with the engine or car it's self. But I do see your point. That low a mileage to do a swap would be a little bit of sacrilege. (though the extra speed etc is a very good excuse.)

If i were to keep it id probably modify it, but my friends agree'd to hold the Escort so its definatley going im afraid

But speedys F7R is awesome, and unfortunatley i never saw Fake when i met chris but i bet its pretty tidy.

But yeah, somebody take it off me for a fair price

Tbh, if I had the cash I'd have this off you, I was very impressed with the shell!
