Ford escort 1300 xl
1972 Mk 1
Genuine UK model
Ford escort “mk1” 1. 3 xl “1972” 41, 500 genuine miles. (Genuine Uk model, Not an import). “Ulez free” with a folder full of service history. This 1300 xl is a very very rare model. It has a lovely red interior which is in near new condition. The car has been fully nut and bolt restored. The car is in near concourse condition and is absolutely stunning. “2” sets of keys - which is very rare for a car this age.
Road tax and MOT exempt.
The car comes with many spare parts - spare carburettor, alternator, full service parts and more. It has a new carburettor, water pump and full major service. It has had a lot of money spent on it to get it into this condition. Much more than the asking price. I have had a couple ford garages offer me full asking price but I’d rather sell it privately as I want someone to love this car as much as I do, rather than sitting in a showroom for decades.
It is a truly stunning example. It’s been to many shows and has been highly appreciated by ford and all other motor enthusiasts. It has also been featured in a couple magazines. One of which I have kept in the boot. The amount of attention you get driving this car to the shops will surprise you. It really makes you feel special.
If you are looking for a genuine Uk mk1 escort which is non molested then look no further. You will not be disappointed. The car is is mint condition. Genuine offers may be considered.

FULL SERVICE HISTORY.
MOT last year - no advisory’s - barn stored since. Heads will roll when you drive this down the street. The 2 tone colour isn’t to everyone’s taste, especially the “purists” but this little escort has so much character. A personality of its own. Featured in magazines and winning awards, if you want to meet car enthusiasts and get your name out there, this is the car to be in.
