1997 R-reg ES**RT GTI

RETRO TRADE SALES BARGAIN OF THE WEEK

Great opportunity for someone looking for some old-school Ford fun without spending a fortune.

At 29 years old, it does have a few jobs that need doing, which is reflected in the price..

Driver's interior door handle needs attention
Slight crunch into 2nd gear
Needs a roof linin & new wiper blades
Airbag light flashes / Ghia dash
Stereo doesn't work & Paintwork isn't perfect, ideally wants a respray if you want it perfect.
Wheel bearing needs changing —new bearing included

Despite the above, this is a usable, honest Retro Ford that has just turned 106,000 miles from new.

✅ MOT until August 2027
✅ 106k miles
✅ HPI clear
✅ 29 years old
✅️ original wheels
✅️ cheap car
✅️ good runner
✅️ tilt slide sunroof
✅ real head turner

A great opportunity to get behind the wheel of an Es**rt GTI without spending the sort of money these cars can command in top condition.

Priced to allow for the jobs required, im sure you will all agree, this is a cheap car...

******* SOLD *******

1983 A-REG FORD ORION 1.6

Rare old thing.

Accordingly to how many left, you can count on one hand how many A-reg Ford orions are currently licensed and on the road at 43 years old! 🇬🇧

✅ Correctly recorded on v5 as Historic Vehicle
✅ Tax and MOT exempt
✅️ starts, runs and drives
✅️ 4 previous keepers
✅ Five-speed gearbox
✅️ original 2 k**b cassette stereo - working
✅️ recent custom made stainless exhaust
✅ Comes with its original steel wheels and original wheel trims

The interior is beautiful and well kept, the dashboard is in pretty decent condition with just one or two small cracks to be expected.

It starts, runs and drives well, making it a great usable classic benefiting very cheap classic insurance with free road tax and mot.

The bodywork isn't perfect, it wears its original patina, the paintwork on the osr quater looks likes its been over polished over the years (see last pic) has a couple rust scabs here and there and a small crack in the rear bumper plastic. But for a 43-year-old survivor, it's not bad at all!

Ford orion's this shape are becoming harder to find, not many that have survived all these years.

This is a lovely, usable piece of 1980s Ford history, ready for a new chapter with its next owner 💙

Grab yourself a bargain!

FORD ORION WHEEL DEBATE! 🤔

Would this early Ford Orion look better with…

A️. The RS alloy wheels currently fitted?

B️. The original steel wheels with factory wheel trims?

Personally, I think both styles have their place, but I’m interested to hear what you lot think!

Are you going for the sporty look or keeping it factory original? 👇

A or B? LET’S HEAR IT! 💬

Out in the Cosworth this morning, when I spotted one of my lifelong mates out on a walk!

So i pulled over..

He asked where I was going, and I said, “I'm off to Old School Lane… are you coming?”

He jumped straight in the car, thinking I was having him on, until we actually arrived 😁

1992 VAUXHALL NOVA 3dr PROJECT

Here we have a Vauxhall Nova 1.2 that’s looking for somebody to take it on and finish what looks to have been a very promising restoration.

From what I can see, this has to be one of the best Nova shells I’ve seen in a long time. It’s had a full respray, with the underside painted in the same colour as the body. You can see that somebody has spent some serious time and money on this one!

✅ Full respray – painted shell and underside
✅ Extremely solid shell – no welding required
✅ Good battery tray
✅️ new fuel tank
✅️ new brake lines
✅️ V5 present
✅️ HPI CLEAR
✅ Underside presents very well
✅ Appears to have had new suspension
✅ Engine will fire on Easy Start
✅ Dashboard, with carpeting and some interior parts like door cards

🔧 PLEASE READ – WORK REQUIRED

This is an unfinished project and is currently a non-runner.

- No battery
- No fuel pump fitted
- spoiler needs re fitting
- paint needs attention where spolier goes
- one wheel cap missing
- Brakes require attention
- Engine will fire on Easy Start, but it will need the fuel system sorting and potentially further work to get it running properly
- No complete interior
- needs exhaust
- Dashboard has some cracking
- Crack to the passenger side of the lower windscreen, outside the driver's field of view
- Will need a thorough going-over and plenty of finishing work

However, with a shell this solid and what appears to be a considerable amount of restoration work already carried out, it would make a fantastic base for the right person

A follower reached out from the North East last week, looking for a hassle-free sale on his 46 year old mk1 Fiesta..

He offered me the mk1 but only on the terms that I buy his vauxhall nova project and take them as a pair.

So, tonight, both cars are tucked up at Retro Trade Sales NW

Remember, if you have something interesting, thinking of selling and would like a hassle-free sale, drop me a message or give us a call on 07555 299640

Thanks
