I think the colour that you are missing is....................
Mercury Grey.......that's right the same colour that they did the Series 2 Turbo in.
There's one for sale on Autotrader right now!!

I had an Auralis Blue one last year.

Now got a Mk 6 RS2000 4x4 in Aubergine. Wicked colour.

Personally I like the Std Non-Metallic Black (as in pics above) Best then Jewel Violet & then Silver/Pacifica/Imperial......Oh hell I think a cossie looks good no matter what colour it is!!!!!

Hope this helps

i'm gaging for some of that (prefer petrol blue meslef, agree that it is also available on "base" cars but a chap at my works has a special edition crappola or sumfing and that looks nothing like as good colour wise as mine, as if its missing a few coats of laquer!!

Although this ain't as much fun with the tail out on mud, it sharpens the reflexes!!!!!!

Just to show that the duke doesn't get away without getting caked in filth either!!!!

Moonstone silver was not a SVO it was a standard colour that Ford had trouble with at the paintshop that's why they are very rare. I hear that there were only 7 of them made.

Don't know how true it is just heard about iut somewhere so don't quote me on that.

Just for the record Imperial Blue ones are the best, only because I couldn't find a Polaris Grey one....lol.

Was just about to say that when i got to the end of this Post. lol

c0ss1e9i6: There is no such colour as Moonstone blue in an Escort cossy, maybe your thinking off Aurilis Blue... which i didnt think was that rare, have seen quite alot of them, hence why i went for a Pacifica Blue and the other main reason i wanted big turbo.

Pacifica Blue was my favourite, but as they were rare i never knew of the Polaris grey, so im going to succeed my Picifica For a Polaris when the time is right.

is a wkd thread tho.....
