oldskooler Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 this car lived only 50 odd miles away from me and was a true inspiration to me every time i visited. in fairness to barry who had it he did keep it very well and i was lucky enough to have got a run in it, AWESOME CAR!!, it couldnt be going to a better home, best of luck with her darran. Thanks Yep been kept really well,only a couple of bits to do. Bet he did'nt let you loose in it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cheers Darran no darran, i was more than content to strap myself into the passenger seat to enjoy a high velocity run!! i used to have a 330 bhp 3dr and i remember us goin to a rs show a couple of yrs back. whenever we both planted it, the scort would just obliterate the cossie!! im sure it wont spend as long parked up in your garage, and rightly so.
Darran Posted October 29, 2008 Author Report Posted October 29, 2008 Will get used for sure this time round !!

Mick The Cabbie Posted November 4, 2008 Report Posted November 4, 2008 A stunning car. I remember seeing it at Ford Fair at Rockingham approx 6 or 7 years ago when it was freshly Tango'd and Cossied. Most of the day, you couldn't see it for the crowds of people around it. I managed to take this shot at the end of the day. Saw it again (the same year I think) at the RS owners club national day at Donnington park
Darran Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Posted November 5, 2008 Nice pics I'll take soon fresh ones at the weekend.
