  1. Thre are a linitted number of mk4 escorts with power steering, it was offered on disabilty cars..but never on cabbys,

     

    Its also a common thing to find on mk4 rally cars..it can be done..as its just a belt n pully system..

    Well from what ive been told, it borrows componets from the sierra. which has belt driven power steering

  3. Despite the early mk4 ghias comming well equiped as standard, there still some additions to be made.

     

    Ive noticed that a few of of our european counterparts, have headlamp washers fitted into the front bumper.

     

    Does anyone know if this option was offered on uk escorts(mk4).and to what models if they were

  4. wow im shocked didnt think they was that old, but well done tony for finding out where they are from.

    I can handle me drink...its just that the chair moved..honest Guv'nor :cool:

  5. At the weekend, i picked up a mint mk4, tis an 1,6 Ghia on a D plate (87), its near standard bar a few bits n pieces but nowt major.

     

    But i was wondering what wheels the car should have on..at present its on 3i dogleg alloys, but i beleive the early ghia models had steels n wheel trims.

     

    Anyone got any ideas or am i barking up the wrong tree as normal

  6. could anyone give me a rough idea of respray costs

     

    my car has a few rust spots but a friend who works in a bodyshop is prepared to prep the car for me,however his boss says they are too busy to allow him to do me a respray on the cheap.

     

    i was just wondering what kind of price id be looking at ,and wether or not they charge more for a colour change...dont want to get ripped off when i go looking for quotes.

     

    cheers dave

     

     

    One word exspensive, a decent respray costs around £850 too £1100, and thats for a non mettalic finish, a full bare metal strip down job whould be closer to 1500
