can people please put pics on of the original colours of the 2wd and 4wd sapphire cosworths having my shell sprayed soon and i cant make up my mind what coulor i want . also what coulor is this [/url]

 

Ebony :





WD

 

neaveau red

 

flint grey

 

That looks like Mercury Grey.

 

 

That is MOONSTONE BLUE, as bloody close to MERCURY GREY, you can get without being it, but it is defo NOT MG, I have a Merc GREY, so have got used to the very SMALL amount of difference between the two colours.

Yeh, you're right, they can look very similar on a photo. I thought moonstone blue only came on the 4wd cossie (and ofcourse the 3drs)? Cant remember seeing a 2WD in Moonstone over in Holland. Maybe colours were made different for certain countries or so?

 

The best,not that i'm biased.

 

I have seen 1 moonstone blue one, even side by side unless GOOD daylight can be hard to tell apart.

Spray it mercury grey as they r rare as rocking horse s**t, (i had 1 on a E plate)

 

Here r the known colours that i know of for the 2wd sapphire cos:-
diamond white,
ebony black,
moonstone blue,
mercury gray,
crystal blue,
flint gray,
magenta

 

Radient red.

 

Yes Radient red is a colour that was used on the 92 face lift models, i only know of a few in that colour, Also i forgot about smokestone blue - v nice colour

 

Nope,radient red 2wd's aswell m8.

 

Radient red 2WD's, Thats a new one on me!!! I'l look into it...

 

WRONG its dicko's car and is 100% mercury grey

 

that car above is mercury grey
the difference is quite noticeable, moonstone is much lighter

this is moonstone

 

I have done my research, And there is no records of ford ever sold a 2WD sapphire in radient red, If you know of one (KSA-COSSY) the chance is that it has been resprayed or not an original cosworth shell, If anyone can add to this then feel free to do so. Just going by records... I have my contacts lol....

 

there IS more than one original 2wd in red, so your 14 minute research cant have been good enough



the one on the left is 2wd, the one on the right is 4x4
there is another radiant red 2wd, and the reg on it is G50 PJO, only one digit difference to the one shown above

 

If that is the case fair play, the chance is you got a one off 2WD, The original owner prob requested it to be resprayed in that colour, try checking the build plate on the slam pannel, should say radient red in german, As far as the records go there is not one that has been sold by ford in stated colour. As for the 4x4, I have seen that passing thru Worcester before!...

 

There's a red one that belongs to a garage round the corner to me... sure there's pix of it on here somewhere too.

Radiant was a rare factory colour as far as I'm aware..

 

Dont want to nit pick but the badges on the back of the so called red 2WD are from a
4X4 so if it is an original car why would anyone want to remove the original metal badges? Hence my sceptism that it is genuine.

 

m8 do a search on here or the rsoc there were quite a few factory radient reds made.

 

thats car at the top is merc grey and i belive it belonged to Dicko&Sarah off here!

 

Already said above it is dicko's car

 

can any 1 gave me the colour code for moonstone blue ?

 

 

smokestone blue

i love this colour

 

Here is my 4x4 in smokestone blue:

 

if you're on about the picture above your post, thats crystal blue, not smokestone.

 

i have some pics of my car back from my good old mate tye the welder looks a1
