Launched in 1983, the MkIII Ford Escort was a very different proposition from its predecessors. The newcomer was intended to be a hi-tech, design to compete with the VW Golf. The Cabriolet version was built by German coachbuilder Karmann; it was Ford's first drop-top car since the Corsair of the '60s and was initially available in Ghia or XR3i guise. The MkIV Escort of 1986 was a more gentle evolution than revolution, but the MkV model of 1990 brought another new bodyshell and in 1991 saw the introduction of the 16-valve Zetec engines. For the XR3i this meant a unit of 1796cc producing either 105 or 130bhp. This generation of XR3i was available in Hatchback Coupe or Cabriolet bodied variants.

Looking elegant in a deep red, with complementing red soft-top, this Karmann-built Escort Cabriolet displays just 37,600 miles from new and just 5 former keepers. The car was originally supplied new by Quicks of Chester and still retains its rear window sticker. As an XR3i version of the Cabriolet, it was bestowed with a power hood, electric windows and mirrors and integral front fog lights in the front bumper. It is offered with the original book pack, owner's handbook and service book. A V5C is present, along with a collection of old MOT certificates, invoices and tax discs. Offered at 'no reserve'.
