Default The tasmanian devil Escort Cosworth
Anyone got pics?

I'm sure I didn't imagine it, I seem to remember it being about 1998 ish, and the bloke who owned it had a couple of others too (WRC replica and an Aubergine one with cream leather and loads of TVs I think?)

I think the reg plate was K666 TAZ?

It was airbrushed and had a double level whaletail on it, gold split rims too I think.

My mate doesn't believe me, so I need to show him pics of it.

Does anyone want to admit to having pics?

Cheers.

All the Taz parts where removed i believe and the car was returned to standard, only know this from seeing parts on other cars from it.

yep think it all went to standard making it a very low mileage late escort, but hardly original.

just been on about this car in Escos room, i think the dash is on e bay at the min, link to it is in there too. Really good bit of air brushing mind but not my cup of tea at all. remember that spoiler and it wasn't nice at all.

That's what jogged my memory, I wasn't sure if it was from the same car, but it reminded me of it all the same.
