Here's a really nice Escort, with 183K Km.
First the good news. The engine, steering, suspension, brakes, and electrics are just great.
Now the bad news. The automatic transmission is not so great. Park, reverse, and 1st and 2nd gear work as they are supposed to, but when the transmission goes for 3rd gear, it finds another neutral. I am told that failure of the third gear clutch is a common problem with this car. I don't have the skills to fix it, so if you can fix the third gear clutch, or really like driving slowly, this is a great opportunity for you.
