You think the head gasket's shot.
1 dealer offed it.
Couple hundred thousand miles.
People have been in it. (sliding their anatomy across the seats)
It will never love you again.You can't get back what you once had.
To answer your question, only if you buy it back.
Worse yet, think of the fodder for the car guys when they have their car guy get togethers and talk car guy stuff.
"Hey, you remember that Escort. Yeah, that guy Terry? BWAHAHAHA..............
What a moron"

$1,000 Dollars? How many guys put that much into just a set of tires, and think nothing of it? It's all a matter of what you want to do, buy it back, or let it go.... I drive panther platform Fords ( Mercury Gran Marquis, Lincoln T/C Cartier), as well as my two Ford F-series, but I still have a yearning for the little cars that I used when I drove lots of miles to work. Small, simple, cheap and dependable. Like Dbox says, "New only means new, it does not mean good" or, "better", so if the Escort is what you really want, do it. My vote was to go get it, but if you aren't going to drive it, it really doesn't make sense, unless you will turn it around for more money in your pocket. Don't know if this helps, just some of my thoughts..... Good Luck in whichever way you choose.....
