In Switzerland we only have Escort without the whale tale as it wasn't homologated due to a high risk of head and neck damages for the bikers if they crash on it from behind...

But Eggenberger made a special version that is breakable in multiples parts but only few were made and it didn't looked exactly as the original part...

If I check the website www.autoscout.ch I see some cossies with (i think an original) whale tale.... how can you explain that??

Is this a replica??:

No it is a real escort cosworth but some guys still decided to put the large rear wing, despite the fact it was banned. It also can be Eggenberger's version of it which is authorized, but you can't tell without watch the car closely.
