Nice  :-*
Always wanted one but could never afford to insure one when you could still buy one at a reasonable price  :'(

Did they not want the original Aquafoam Blue?  :D

Nice work though 8) What spec was it originally?

Always quite fancied a 2000E with the running gear swapped from the RS2000 4x4 Escort...

Went to a local tyre depot to put some tyres on the Jag a couple of weeks ago and the guys there had a mint Sierra 3 dr saloon. Just a 1.6 GL or something but a real trip down memory lane.

Also there was a mint Escort Mexico. I looked at this most basic of '70s cars and pondered that if I suggested I swap the XE for it, he'd probably want a considerable amount of folding in the deal too.  :o

Not for me, but nice to see them all the same. ;D

Mum had an Escort in Aquafoam blue, so a bit of a soft spot :D

At least they chose to lose the red accents from the side mouldings :y
