Located in GVR SOLD: 1998 Ford Escort SE Wagon ONLY 35,750km! ***MINT***



Hi,

Im selling my 98 Ford Escort SE Wagon
i bought it in December of 1998 and it only has 35,750KM on it

its got automatic transmission, power windows, locks, mirrors, pwr steering, anti-theft w/remote, A/C, im not a smoker...
exterior is silver
ive maintained it religiously and it hasnt had a problem at all

consumer reports rated it as one of the best used cars to get

i just put on new tires on it
Falken Ziex 512 with bigger dimensions than stock to get more grip
it is perfect for rainy vancouver weather as its deep channels guides the water away without a sweat
safe and never hydroplans

car is clean and well taken care of, interior is almost as new

heres the link to consumer reports showing that Escort is one of the best bets and one of the only 2 Ford vehicles that made it to the list

http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/c...-worst-405.htm

the car is lightweight and very fuel efficient

If you were in Toronto I would jump on this deal faster than lion on a steak. I have been looking a low mileage wagon. Good luck with the sale!

bump for an awesome car, my father in law has had two of these cars that he bought with low kms (wrote the first one off), no problems that he can think of

if i was in the market for another car, i would hop on this like white on rice

good deal if anyone's looking, reliable economic car! cheap parts too
