Hello, welcome Paul!

Nice Escort, there is a paradise for Escorts, you can get everything.

 

I´ve a cuestion. Finesse version, have any special equipment?

 

no, the finnesse versions have no set standard for equipment as they were the very last of the escorts. they were all sold after the focus came out, mine doesnt even have a sun roof, some have electric boot, the alloy wheels differ quite often as well

Hey - nice to see another local car (im in Garstang Lancashire)

 

Mines a W reg Finesse originally from Chris Allen Ford of Garstang.

 

Let me know if you ever need a hand with the car! Luke

 

Thank you Luke, I think mine was registered in Wigan but unsure of the dealer but I will look in the service history.

Very pleased with the car especially for £250! Runs so much better after a good engine service for £41 (oil, air, fuel filters, plugs and fully synthetic oil) and based on this weekend getting 43MPG so very pleased :-)

Thank you Zeth, I think scottybo answered that question perfectly. Mine does not have a sunroof either, however the AC is ice cold so me and the misses will be happy in summer lol

Mines a finesse also, mine does not have a sunroof, but boot release,a/c so pretty much the same as other finesses. Only thing that mine has is the halewood badges not that means much. it seems to vary from model to model what they have. yours looks good tho.

 

This is a pic of mine, no real modifictions just added bumper spats, and side skirts.

Stunning Car, I love it. Looks great with the skirts and rear bumper spats.

Mine has the tape thingy that doubles as a pointless cup holder ha ha ha

I wonder what the last car number was off the line?

First Proper dry day I have had, so backed the car onto the ramps to change the fuel filter.

The bracket came off easy enough and so did the fuel filter.

I had purchased my new filter from Euro Car Parts (Crossland) came to fit it and noticed the body was slightly smaller than the one that had come off, so had to pack it temporary.

All in all went smoothly. I will be getting a genuine Ford filter ASAP.

New oil filter tool ordered I have gone for the 3 legged type the Scottybo mentioned, so that's for next weekend.
