You know you drive an escort when...
As the title suggests. You know you drive an escort when... All the windows fog up when it rains and your windscreen wipers are crap.  You guys should should have heaps of these

You brake hard or corner hard and the windscreen washer water squirts on the window.

Old guys approach you at the servo/shopping centre and say, 'I used to have one like that'...... 'Does it have the twincam engine?' etc etc...

(1) You start braking early for the next corner - starting to brake as you leave the last corner should give you enough time.
(2) Your wife refuses to drive the car (no problem here)
(3) You can fix nearly anything that goes wrong with it mechanically - that's because you have had to fix the same problem in the past.

You approach a seemingly harmless corner and then next thing you know you're upside down. Or is that just me? [:x)]

The engine oil level keeps dropping but the engine doesn't blow any smoke....
All of your friends and family bought new cars 25 years ago, however you still refuse to let the old girl go
You are on pole at the traffic lights on a multi lane road, the lights go green, you take off, however you cause a bank up of traffic behind you as new cars race to overtake

when it rains your feet get saturated.
..the front end is so worn & sloppy you hit the brakes & the wobble gets so violent the passenger door bursts open !
