TC-DNB Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I know it's going to be a one-sided answer being an Escort owners club....but, my mates selling his Saxo VTR and I fancy a change. Just want something a bit quicker. Although saying that seems a silly idea with the warm weather coming (having a cabriolet) and I do love my cabby! Hmmm...comments welcome (awaits abuse haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC-DNB Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 You will miss the ability to drop the roof, I know, I'm driving a tintop temporary at the moment. Yea my 5minute thought has now disappeared haha. Plus I just found out it's done double the miles of mine! Plus my cabby flew through it's MOT. One illegal tyre and a lower arm bush. Had a spare tyre and new bush was £8.50. Not bad for a 1998 Escort just wish it was quicker they aint that quick.... keep the escort you twit I dunno, my mates old MK1 was rapid, but think it had cams and stuff done on it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) Absolutely mental swapping a nice Escort for a Saxo, let alone a cabriolet with summer coming up, and let alone one as nice as yours! I was looking at a cheap white mk4 cabriolet last week with the intention of it being a second car for the summer. Sadly too much work (see money) was needed, which I can't justify if I'm keeping the Audi. Looking at V6 Audi cabriolets as a replacement for mine now instead Edited April 4, 2011 by sidrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escortedal Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 mad even to consider a swap, saxo's are chav mobiles and most probably ragged to death, and the brakes are really bad for stoppung im told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
