For those wanting pictures, found this on the Reyland website. It happens to say on there that it is for sale, not that this is a for sale post

Looks like a mid nineties mondeo in mid nineties colours.

Found an old thread too, https://passionford.com/forum/restor...pdate-pg4.html lots of pics.

This was the result of a race against Clarkson...

I remember reading this in Fast Car or Revs back in the day when they went along to a Clarkson video shoot. Got some video somewhere of the first Escort Cossie launching at Alconbury for a Revs day

Try converting one to the standard of mine for the money, you simply won't. Anyhow I'm not sure it would look right with a badboy bonnet
