Well seeing as how my first car was an Escort, my current one is also and they've been incredibly reliable and good transport I've got no complaints. I had my first (a Mk III for 2 1/2 years) and we've had this one for 6 years!
Neither EVER let me down. I'm a big fan Wink In fact I've only had to replace the engine temp. sensor on this one and the front brake disks (due to a defective pad damaging one). Not bad at all Wink
We've done from Pécs to Little Chalfont and all over Britain and Europe, plus regular runs to Budapest and back and all over Baranya County and Pécs itself Smiley

Apart from their annoying habit of rusting quicker than any other car, I must say all escorts I have encountered have been good enough cars. my dads lasted him well.

The rear wheel arches are a terror for rusting on Escorts. Hence the first thing I do is sand them down and give 'em a lick of Hammerite.
My first Escort after a rather unfortunate encounter with a tit on my side of the road in a Jag which led to me rebuilding the front end (including welding some mighty steel bars in the bumpers) and painting the whole car in silver Hammerite with a black base line and chassis. Talk about bullet-proof as well as rather cool 8)
