This is an exceptional 1988 Ford Escort RS Turbo. Recently acquired out of a private collection where it resided for 18 years in a climate controlled facility. It has had only 2 owners and only 34,637km (21,522 miles) from new. It still wears its original paint and shows it has been well taken care of its entire life. VIN: WF0BXXGCABJE51019 The car is equipped with a turbocharged 130hp 1.6-liter SOHC four routing power to the front wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox and limited-slip differential. It also sports factory Recaro seats. Recent service includes: New Bosch fuel pump. New fuel filter and fuel lines. Various lines and hoses. New exhaust. Factory fog lights replaced by PIAA units up front with removable caps. Vinyl on the back arm rests has started to stretch a bit and fuel gauge is not working. This RS runs, drives, stops and handles like it should. It starts right up and is a true blast to drive. Extremely rare car in the US. Collector quality ready for its new owner to appreciate. Comes with original owner's manual, original jack, set of floor mats and safety triangle.
