You are biding to purchase a 1988 Ford Escort GL 4 DOOR HATCHBACK THAT HAS BEEN DRIVEN ON AVERAGE LESS THAN 1,800 MILES PER YEAR far less than 15,000 the industry average.These miles are certified by Auto Check,(with an immaculate history-no accidents) the prior owner and obviously the exceptional condition of the vehicle.This is the mileage you would typically find on very pricey 2012 and 2013 models but very rarely on a 1988.

*******************

In these unpredictable economic times we feel the fairest way to sell this vehicle is for you the buyer to set the price,yes you after all isn't that the best way to buy,you price it?

*******************

This handsome little guy comes to us from the original owners administrator.We find this vehicle clean from front to rear with minimal cosmetic imperfections.All lenses,trim and moldings are clean and straight.We notice the car has been re-finished (approx. a year or so ago) but we see no signs of any prior damage or metal work.The windshield is clear and clean showing no stone bruises,cracks or wiper mar.There are a very fresh looking set of all season radials riding on the original factory rims with all trim rings and center caps present showing no curb or road rash.The unused spare and all jacking hardware are present and stowed properly.The interior is very neat and tidy as we sure it has been kept its whole life.There is a minor separation of the vinyl door panel of the drivers door,we have ordered the material and the repair will be done professionaly.We see no signs that this vehicle has ever been smoked in,eat in or used to carry pets,refreshing to say the least!

*******************

Mechanically there are no worries here.Our certified tech road tested this little guy for 45 minutes at 55 mph and after some routine service checks (he did mention that the timing belt has been replaced) he had many compliments saying ''that is a good little car''.The ever reliable 1.9ltr 4 cylinder engine fires to life with the click of the key coming to idle at specs.We see no oil leaks or smoke around the block or from the exhaust.On the drive the acceleration is smooth and responsive,the front end is tight and pleasing (with no errant axel noises as is sometimes the case with many front wheel cars).The automatic transmission shifts on point thru the gears and the brakes stop this guy confidently with no pull or shudder.The air conditioner (recently converted to R-134A ) works quietly producing excellent cooling.We see no issues with the heat,defrost,original sound system or safety features.We see NO signs of any SITTING illness which is sometimes the case with extremely low mileage vehicles.It is very evident this little car has been driven on a regular but limited basis.If this vehicle is maintained by the next fortunate owner as it has been in the past they can expect many miles and years of good safe transportation.

**********************

Whether you need a great little reliable daily commuter,are on a budget (and who isn't these days),the perfect starter car for that NEW driver in the family (that wont break the bank) or for that new college student,this is your guy.Please keep in mind vehicles of this vintage in this condition with these kind of miles have almost disappeared from the market and when they become available they are normally passed down by a senior family member and never offered to the public.Don't pass up this rare opportunity to own this historic little car that will more than likely increase in value as time goes by.

********************

As always you are welcome to come take a look,listen or drive prior to biding and we encourage this.We are just north of Annapolis,Maryland zip code 21061.We will co-operate fully with any inspection company you choose to examine the car for you.We offer free shuttle service from close by BWI airport and Amtrack rail station.We also offer FREE over-night title delivery service for our out of town clients.Any questions or concerns please e-mail or call Charles or Mike @ 410-207-2168.
