i know there has been a post about them before but couldnt find it so il start a new one.

So what Programs/Films have you seen them in?

I know ''The Professionals'' used pretty much every ford in the late 70's early 80's..... like the MK2 Escort RS2000 & MK3 Capri 3.0S. They also used a MK2 Capri 3.0S X-Pack in one episodes.

Essex Boys had a 2wd Saph in one scene too

Rise Of The Footsolider had a S2 Rep...

Touch of frost had a 2wd Saph in, in one Scene

Spender is the obvious one.
'Orrible had an escort 'cosworth' in it.

spender = sapphire cossie
minder = various capris driven by terry and the x paxk mk2 in the opening titles

lol @ the escort in orrible pretty bad rep, i rekon im the only person who actualy liked that show lol


there was also an escort 'cosworth' in twin town, "now then boys, tell me about the cosworth" my favourite film

 

There was a White S2 used in a reconstruction of that road rage stabbing a few years back... the one where it was his blonde lass that had done it in an argument, but had made up a big story about being chased through the countryside and gone on tv press conference to beg for info on it. I think the guys name was Lee, but cant remember his 2nd name.


Cheers,
Grant

Dont think it was a XR3 in ROTFS either....

 

there was a series 1 in twin town also.will be a rep though as its an x plate Just when that bird starts singing downtown then gets pissed on

 

think it went under a fuel truck in a petrol station Monster.

there is also a saph cos in the film Ronin, very small glimpse of it as the big car chase ends with the beemer upside down on fire, its just before the beemer goes off the road

 

damn didnt see you beat me to it .

im quite sure it was a xr3 (its bugging me now im going to have to put it on and look lol)

 

That Mk2 escort in the credits to Minder.. Was it a 'one off' just for that ??

someone told me at the time you couldnt buy a car like that from Ford.. is that true?

 

Ones not mentioned so far:

Saff cossie in thief takers
Black 3door/500(was yonks ago,so cant remember which marque it was) in Boon
RS2000 in the Marksman

who else remembers that Lord or Earl whatever his name was,who got nicked and was bailed and got picked up from Police station by his wife in a white 3 door
Loads more prob,just can't remember at the mo...

 

The Business also had a MK4 Escort XR3i Cabbie inn

 

no,it was just an x packed flat front mk2..nothing special really

 

Didnt life on mars use a MK3 Cortina?

 

oh and dempsey and make peace,she had a grey 1.6i cabby and a white Se500 cabby....obviously not RS's though

 

xr4i in the first Robocop, when their delivering him to the station!!

 

yeah i remember that 1.woman called tracie andrews did it.lee harvey blokes name.she put knife in the petrol tank and sed it was road rage.think it was a s2 used in reconstruction but it was a 88 spec xr3i that was the real car

 

Wasnt she like model or something like that, remember reading about that on here before

 

if she was a model,then it was for shoes or gloves

 

maybe i am wrong then but i remember something about a Model in the early 90's who had a S2...white one iirc about a murdering or something

 

Sure there was a 2.8i Capri in Brookie.
