02hudsond · 18-08-2009, 13:56

hello i am looking to take a crash course very soon and am lloking for a decent one also looking for a 1991 1.3 ford escort or simular for cheeap price that runs please p.m if you can help thankyou all

why are you so specific in make model and year of car?

Surely at that sort of budget, condition is everything... make and model should be secondary

not sure about crash courses as its > 20 years since I passed. best bet is to just ring round and ask for what % pass they hit

02hudsond · 18-08-2009, 19:57

becuase it has to be that model and size as the insurance is a good price and want a cosie body kit

entwisi · 18-08-2009, 20:21

you do realise that adding a "Cossie" body kit would up your insurance?

I would have thought that with a 'bodykit' as one oof your major concerns that a Saxo or 106 would be cheaper and equally as 'chav-able'

Have you asked your insurance how much it will be with a "modded up car" ?

What age are you ?

My son pays over £1400 and thats just for a bog standard KA.

Well......There are currently 705 Ford Escorts on Ebay, 9 of them are 1991 models, NONE of them are 1300 cc's. On Exchange and Mart, there are 76 Escorts, various years up to 1999, on Autotrader there are 15, Escorts that meet your requirements... Of course if you opt for a 3 door, which the Escort Cosworth, to give it it's real name, came in, you will narrow that number down significantly. Don't forget you will need a drain pipe for the exhaust and a huge amount of money to insure. Have you had a quote yet.....I tried a few, well there is not much to do in Morocco at night when you are not working, I take you are 17. I could not get anyone to insure me (pretending I was 17 again). You might need ALL of that compensation just to get it insured.....

Im sorry but if all you can think about is "modding up your car" before you even pass your test sounds to me like you are quite not ready for the road.
