I'm the 4th of mine, first was the managing director of Henlys Ford in newcastle who had the car registered M9 COS (MY COS) from new, then it went to his friend in Denton, newcastle for a few months then onto an old member of our local group who i knew and he owned it for 7 years and then i bought her

there will never be a 5th owner

Mine has 3 previous (i'm the 4th). One of the previous owners being Andy Horne a well respected rally driver in Scotland. Don't know if info is correct but someone (whom i've never met) informed me that my Escos was Andy Horne's wifes car and it sat next to an RS 200 in the garage.

My car was registered locally here in Swindon and owned by the first owner for nearly 2 years.It went back to Cowie Ford in Swindon, were at the time it was in that 'tigerstrip livery' .The 2nd owner said 'i'll have it, if you take that off!' He then owned it for 10 years locally, until i bought it last year.

I nearly bought that of the original owner! Was due to go view it on a saturday it sold on the friday! A dealer on the autotrader bought it and put 5k across it, they had it a long time though so hopefully you got it at a good price

No idea and too late and too cold to go out to the car and look at it.
