Default Coef. of Drag & Frontal Areas for RSs?

Does anyone have any data on the Coefficient of Drag and the Frontal Areas for common RSs such as;

Fiesta Mk3 (RS Turbo)
Escort Mk4 (RS Turbo)
Escort Mk5 (RS Cosworth)
Escort Mk6 (RS2000)
Fiesta Mk5 (Zetec S)

Those kind of motors? Cant seem to find any myself, though I recall at one stage having the data for a Mk4 Escort, buggered if I can find it now though!

Thanks
