Ford Escort 1970 mk1

Brand: Ford
Model: Escort mk1
Date of manufacture: 1970
Plate: FYY 513H
Colour: red
Country of registration: UNITED KINGDOM
Country of manufacture: BELGIUM

This is a beautiful example of a Ford Escort mark 1, photographed in Copenhagen, Denmark. Despite the 'GB' sticker, and the United Kingdom numberplate, this car is a left hand drive, so manufactured in Genk, Belgium. It's certainly been around! Several different engine sizes were available, 1100cc and 1300cc being the most common, but a 940cc equipped vehicle (as is the case here) was produced primarily for the French and Italian markets. The mark 1 Escort was available from 1968 - this early example was first registered in January 1970.

Beautifully restored two-door mark 1 Ford Escort from 1970.
