Description
1997 Ford Escort SI 1.8 Petrol - 39,000 Miles - One Former Owner - Exceptional Example
A rare opportunity to purchase an exceptionally well-preserved 1997 Ford Escort SI 1.8 petrol, finished in blue and showing just 39,000 miles from new.
This is a genuinely special example with fantastic provenance. The vehicle has had just one former owner, who lived in Battersea, London, and maintained the car tremendously throughout their ownership. It has been meticulously looked after and comes with an extensive full service history with Brownes of London, Norwood Road, who have maintained the vehicle throughout its life.
The exceptionally low mileage is believed to be largely down to the car spending its life in London and covering relatively short distances.
We acquired the Escort in 2022 and have continued to maintain it to the same high standard. Since then, it has been kept safely stored in a garage, with servicing, MOTs and any maintenance required carried out as necessary.
The condition really does speak for itself. For a vehicle approaching 30 years old, it presents exceptionally well both inside and out, with only very minor age-related marks. It is increasingly difficult to find Escorts of this era that have survived in this sort of condition, particularly with such low mileage, ownership history and supporting documentation.
The vehicle is supplied with both keys, full V5C logbook, owner's manuals and accompanying documentation from new, together with its comprehensive service history.
There are no known issues or particular faults to note. The car is being sold strictly due to needing additional space, rather than through any fault with the vehicle.
A superb opportunity for an enthusiast or collector looking for a genuine, low-mileage and extremely well-cared-for example of an increasingly desirable 1990s Ford.
