i was only comparing the 2 on both condition and how much they want $$$$.
Did you know that Lasers also has a racing history aswell.... but not aswell known as the Escorts. As the lasers were a support race.
(did you know that was a big stepping stone for Mark Skaife.... i'll post the thread i postd awhile ago, below for you 2 look at)

The laser seems to be a better buy and more bang for your $$$$. Not only that i don't have to spend big $$$ in doing it up, cause its already done up.
as for the Escort there would be afew more $$$ to spend on it to get it at were i would like it to be..... and i don't really have those $$$$.
My old KB never caused me any troubles, unless i left the lights on and flattened the battery.
:
It was strong, reliable, great on fuel, and the girls at school loved my car
: ... maybe cause everyone else drove a VL commodore to school.
Not only will the Laser rust in 5 years the Escort will also rust 2. they are both 20yr old cars, of course they will rust.
:
The Escort is for sale for $5,000
The Laser is for Sale for $2,000... plus balance of rego = $500 for 11months rego = $2,500.
Now the Escort is worth double the Laser NOW. so i'm going to pay double the price for the Laser now, to sell it for... double the price of the Laser in 5 years time..... it doesn't add up as there is NO advantage cause i'm paying double upfront.
:
However i really do like the Escort, i loved driving it, its local and suits my needs, the Laser on the other hand is in Melbourne, haven't driven this Laser, but all so suits my needs. The only difference is i won't chew the back tyres off the rims. :nutsycuck
