Performance-stock 1,6 8valve makes 105bhp so its quite nice... mine does around 134bhp now, aiming for 150-160bhp, good brakes, nice handling. Built quality-not bad, some rost after 21 years of working, but I got rid of it... Interior, litlle bit too plastic, but recaro seats are magificent. Exterior-last escort that looked good, anything more to add? Costs, quite a lot, my engine with really light feet drinks about 10l/100km, but with mine feet and mods it does about 15-20l/100km, besides this it's only about fluid checks... And yep it's fun to own ppl with this car, 130bhp with 950kg says much :D

Having owned more than 10 escorts I know them very well. The 1.9 liter was faster better on fuel and done better than the 1.6 of 86 and older. The engine went forever in both with 35+ with the 1.9 and 28 with the 1.6. I preferred the station wagon over the other models for extra room without hurting mpg's and in the early 90's mazda started making them for ford but I never owned on of those I just know used models were the biggest bang for the buck in their day, if you didn't mind being seen in one. One of the most practicle cars of all time. With today's economy I would even consider hunting up another one with lowish miles and in decent condition. Then when the economy picks up you can pass it down to a your neice so they can experience a piece of american history, what a nice gift it would make for just a couple hundred.

The best hand me down I ever had. This was my sister's car before I got it, and by the time I got it it was well and truly knackered. I spent a lot of my time working on it, respraying rusty panels, replacing smashed lights and the rest in the year before I passed my test (I got the car when I was 16). The car paid me back in kind, by actually being surprisingly good! I was going to put some XR3i bits on it (alloys, interior, spoiler etc.), but then a K reg came up for a bargain low price, so I sold it and made a tidy profit on it. All in all, this car did me well, and definitely handles better than the MK5 and 6 models I've had since.
