what car would be used for the 90's version of Ashes to Ashes
the 70's series Life on Mars was a mk3 Cortina,
80's Ashes to Ashes is an Audi Quattro,
what do you think the 90's series would have, if they do one?

Well I think it would have to be Escort RS Cosworth, perhaps the Limited Edition
Monte Carlo would look awesome I think.

i saw the cortina from the mars one at classic ford me mate didn't think it was the nicest mk3 cortina he ever saw,there was a transit bullion van there too that was kevlar bomb proof with inch thick glass and emergency escape hatches,it was in last nights episode which i missed. it was a solid ol thing but fookin hand painted
i hope to god they never use a escort cos as it will attract nob heads who won't leave you alone when your driving or filling up with petrol.

the quatro wasnt a 4dr
Would have to be an iconic car that everyone knows from the era so it can only be a Escos

It would be something proper iconic. There were a few decent motors that'd fit but I wouldn't like to choose.
Last night's episode was superb!! My mate's brother was the irish guy they arrested at the beginning
