Used 2003 Ford Escort for Sale

We have had our Ford Escort for about two years, and we are absolutely in love with it! We bought it right before we had our first child. We were a little worried how well this car would do as functioning as a family car specifically with the car being a bit tiny and a two door. The two door isn't the most functional thing for us seeing as, in our case, we have to get a car seat in and out of the back and having to reach back to buckle her in, but we make it work because we love it so much! We bought our car used with about 86,000 miles on it. It has 123,00 miles on it now, and it's still going strong! We drive over two hours everyday back and fourth to work, take our child to doctors appointments, visit family, buy groceries, go shopping, and go out to eat on those special occasions; this car takes us everywhere. Since buying it we haven't had any problems at all with it. We've only had to do the normal maintenance on it. Honestly, if given the choice of getting a different car, we wouldn't trade this one because it is the best car we have ever owned.

Overall, I would rate this car a 6/10. I actually purchased this vehicle used in 2010, but it had barely been used (only 23,000 miles). I currently have about 97,000 miles on it. I feel that it can last for much longer, but I have definitely had to repair some things. I know I have under 100,000 miles, but my car is almost 14 years old. I don't know what it cost new, but I paid $4,200 for it and it has been WELL worth the money for the price. I really like how sporty the Ford Focus ZX2 looks. I believe it's actually the last Focus that Ford produced. I never really think of myself driving in the vehicle, but when I pass another one on the road I think about how cute and feminine the car looks compared to other cars in it's class. I like the tiny spoiler in the back - it seems to add that special touch. I thought that I liked two-door cars, until I had this one. I can't really complain about backseat space, because I mostly use it for luggage rather than passengers. The trunk is very spacious for the size of the car. It is hard to shove larger items through the door and behind the retracted driver and passenger seats. There is no way I could transport small furniture with this car. Even though the car is an older model, I like how I still have automatic functions, such as automatic windows, mirror positions, and a CD player.

This car is a great car! I bought it used at 60,000 miles. I originally bought it for my commute to and from work, which is 200 miles total there and back. I would say that it has definitely paid for itself just because of its performance driving that long drive, five days a week. We have also taken this car on six trips. All six trips it has gone back and fourth from Virginia to Ohio. We have never had a problem any time on those trips. This car may be little but the performance that it puts out tells a complete different story.
