Ford Escort XR3i Cabriolet — 1990

• Zustand technisch

  Timing belt, water pump and radiator replaced last year. Feels stable on the road and during some spirited cornering there is a slight creaking from plastic panels in the cabin but nothing from the chassis or bodywork. A certain exhaust leak is audible at the rear. Gauges, instruments, sunroof mechanism and electric windows function fine. The power-operated mirrors do not function, however. The car is equipped with an older alarm system that is disconnected.

• Zustand Interieur

  The interior is in remarkably fine condition with one curious exception – the door handles. These are, for some reason, in poor condition, worn and appear to be corroded by something. Why this is the case remains unexplained, as the rest of the interior is virtually flawless in every detail. The textiles, seats, carpets and plastic trim are all of high standard. Simply neat and fresh.

• Zustand Exterieur

  For its age in fine condition, closer inspection reveals a few details worth mentioning. The bumpers have been repainted at some point, there is a lacquer crack on the front and some blistering has occurred on the rear. It is likely that some additional paintwork may have been done on the car over the years. Minor rust spots have appeared on a couple of wing edges, some wear marks are present and there is a small damage on the driver's door. The soft top has become somewhat discoloured with age and has developed a crack in the lower edge, but otherwise looks good and closes tightly as it should. The soft top cover that comes with the car is in very fine condition and faultless. Overall, minor details that are in no way unusual on a car from 1990.

• Zustand gesamt

  Overall a good car with minor wear and tear as expected with age. Nothing that detracts from driving experience or reliability. An affordable and straightforward way to enjoy open-air motoring on fine days and snug and comfortable with the hood up on other days.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .

• At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
• During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
