A fantastic example of the iconic Ford Escort XR3i, presented in classic black and in remarkably well preserved condition.Originally a French market car, this example was imported and registered in the UK in 2021 and remains left hand drive, adding to its character and originality. It is powered by the lively 1.6L petrol engine that made the XR3i such a popular hot hatch of its era.The car comes with a large folder of history, showing years of careful ownership and maintenance. Inside, the interior is original and in superb, near new condition, which is increasingly hard to find on cars of this age.Importantly, this Escort has never been welded, something that is becoming extremely rare for these models, and it remains a very solid, well preserved example throughout.With the XR3i becoming increasingly collectible, this is a great opportunity to own a genuine and honest example of one of Fords most recognisable performance hatchbacks of the 1980s.
