The Ford Escort, be it through rallying or via its popularity in its day, is a staple of the automotive industry. Though the third generation of the car is probably one of the least recognised up against the gorgeous Mk1 and whale tail cossies.
Though in the right specification such as this Diamond White and black vinyl soft-top model, they can be just as charming. This 1984 model has been with the same Italian keeper since its first registration and has clearly been well used.
It does show signs of wear and tear throughout, though the mechanics has reportedly been well looked after. The bodywork also looks good for its age while the underside appears to be very clean. It certainly has potential to be an interesting, open-top daily driver great for the upcoming warmer months.
This single-owner Mk 3 Ford Escort has clearly been used as it should throughout its near-40-year-long life. There is some wear and tear to the interior while the exterior looks good for the most part.
It has reportedly been regularly maintained mechanically, and so should run as one would expect.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
C&C prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3-minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours. You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you’re able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
