Its a no brainer for me, but based on nothing more than the fact every escort I have ever driven, I've crashed.

No desire to look like a woman, I'll have a car with a tin roof.

Though I wouldn't have the saab either, never liked them.

If I HAD to have one I'd be torn  :-/

Probably go for the Ford - better resale value I reckon

I don't think you would get a Saab for the price LK paid for the Escort which has a current MOT but the roof is a little tatty ;)

Although I must add he has just bought a Saab with a tin roof for less than he paid for the Escort ;D
