Guest derrick Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 okay guys one for all you i know a guy who has a mk5 a harrier two door escort in good condition and about seventy thousand on the clock and one owner from new all it needs is a new alternator and a general tidy up as its been laid up for a few years theres absolutely no rust on it at all so the question is would it be worth putting back on the road or break it for spares im not too sure what engine is in it but i think it might be a 1.4 cvh And its on an h plate so any ideas any one ?

I would see how much of a following this type of car has as after all ppl used to snigger when i had a brown mk1 950cc fiesta L with beige interior, now imagine you had that now how many people would want it off you??? Never been much into the mk5-7 range but after all the escorts are no more now so there all collectable aint they? Its just it that specific model worth holding on to?

gingergman Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 ive never heard of one aswell, can you get any pics of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaz Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I have only heard of mk2 harriers, and they were fast limited edition cars, mk2's harriers would not have 1.4 engines. So check exactly what it is before you buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest derrick Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 ive never heard of one aswell, can you get any pics of it? will try and get the guy and get a few pics of it i think he is only after scrap value for the car i remember the ad for the harrier it was set on a winding road and some crap rock tune to go with it. the car has stood for about 5-10 years roughly the car has two gold stripes with the harrier words just above the lines that run each side of the car i think it was a limited edition to celebrate escorts so it might be worth something either way i will still make money from it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
