Doesn't the blue one have WRC front wings?? The grey one above clearly doesn't.

Anyway who cares, it looks MEGA in Grey!!!

Grey IS the new Black, or Blue or whatever really!!!!!

Why does the wheels look all wrong?? The front wheel looks like it's cracked or something, but that's just the shine

I don't think it's a photoshop, it's norwegian

It's clearly not the blue...

i think that might be Alexander Paulsen's Escort. He won the "Gatebil Racing" series last year and the car haven't been on the track this year so i guess it's his car..

The 2003 version

i might be wrong but give me the directlink to the site you found it on and i'll let you know..
not if i'm wrong thou..

yup, my guess is that it's Alexander Paulsen's car.. especially after i went to prospec.no (adress on the rearview mirror on the car) and found images of the "old" car and his name as "site owner".. that really gave me a hint..

in 2003 he had a not to heavy modified car, guess it was stage 3 or something... was info somewhere on the evo.no site but i didn't bother reading it..
that's old news anyways..

but he have used a year on rebuilding the car so i guess it will be good and some details will probably pop up on the interweb..
nice car thou

It's alexander paulsen right.
Just look at those brakes.

He may be a solid competitor to the wrc escort.


The wrc escort was also on the same show

So they had these two great cars and picked this vauxhall astra? as the winner


Have a look at this movie from the 2003 season at gatebil racing from alexander paulsen's point of view =)

Nope it's not the same car... the grey one is standard Escort RS Cosworth (streetcar) and the Blue one is genuine M-Sport WRC Escort driven by Carlos Sainz
to victory two times...

Very very nice. Blue one still nicer IMO though.
