Default Settle a dispute: Escort Cos colours help.

Me and a mate have differing opinions about the colour of this..

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1995-FORD-ESCO...QQcmdZViewItem


He thinks its a limited edition/very few made?

I think some bling spud has sprayed it that colour?

Who's right?

Never seen 1 the same colour as that before, and judging by the interior aswell, i'd say it had been resprayed that colour at some point after it left the factory
