just get a 5 door mate theres plenty about and they look better lol

Refuse!

 

Try autotrader?

I'd sell ya mine but it has rusty arches.

Yea mate on AutoTrader constantly, I found a PERFECT 3dr Amparo Blue 1.6i Finesse with every optional extra, got a great insurance quote, was only a 10 minute drive from me... had 2 wait until monday to speak to the dealer and it was sold and thy hadn't taken it off AutoTrader yet! :vangry: :censored: :nutter:

 

I know that feeling.

 

try places like gumtree too - but if you need a swap only your best bet is autotrader unfortunately.

 

have you seen anything on ebay? they sometimes like to swap.

 

I think your issue will be your escort is a 1.4 encore, even though its been done up people like their mod cons.

 

are you willing to travel for it too?

You can have the AS Gti mate .. I wont be needing it for much longer. 1.8 tho ..

I would love it mate and would definitely keep my Cupra R splitter and put it on yours like we talked about @ Durham

 

I personally like 3dr's better but 5 dr more practicle as i have kids.

and who said 5drs aint sporty!!!

Not that the 5dr's aren't sporty enough as I do like mine, but I just like the 3dr's a lot more :)

 

gonna struggle to find one mate...

 

as for being sportier.....both cars are the same shape :rolleyes: :nutter:

 

I prefer 5 doors, didn't realise how nice yours was until you put pucs up recently :)

I know i'm bound to struggle mate that's why i'm not relly put loads of effort into it and just going to bump the topic once in a blue moon just incase anything does pop up

 

The issue you have is you want to swap.

 

do you have the cash to buy a car? and could you go to a 1.8?

If I was to be able to stretch to a 1.8 it would be RO55's but even then I think I would be looking at over £2k insurance :censored:

Depends is RO55's a gti or just a 1.8?

 

but £2k is scarey :eek:

It's a GTI, that's what I mean though if I was going to go take the dive and go for a 1.8 I may aswell get a GTI as insurance isn't much (if atall) different

it is!

 

We have an Si - and its a good couple of hundred less to insure than a GTi!

 

Escort-Ross has a 1.8 Si made to look like a Gti going for sale soon. its 3 door panther black

 

Si = group 10

GTi = group 13.

 

Si also has the same engine so why not go for the si?

A few reasons:

  • He won't want to PX for my car
  • I don't have the money to buy another car
  • I can't afford the insurance

 

Unfortunately :unsure:
