id say HELL NO its not real then!

cant tell tho, exact rep (tho cud by the plate as i bet its on an A plate or summat, deffo not D or E like real ones).

what engine in it? i had a while back the exact same car (bought it just to sell on), had a 2.8v6 janspeed turbo in it, huge turbo, 7th injector, huge intercooler, etc etc

dont feel anything like a real cossie tho, even with the same power, jus aint the same...

sounded good tho!

I would say No!!!!!

Something about the rear window does'nt look right,the thick black area around the right hand side of it looks a bit odd!!

Maybe a XR4I

But could be wrong.

Looks Like one I had a while back, had quite a big accident in it on the M62, Mine was a 2.1 Pinto too , hopefully it's not that one !

Used to have a private plate , but i think they put it back on a C Reg when the insurance wrote it off [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img], never did get my reg back B45tards

Still.. now happy with the Scoob, so much more comfortable .
I still hanker after a bit of cheap fun though, and find myself looking at 3 doors all the time, Keep having to tell myself i can't run two cars

OH GOD! Didnt see all that black crap around the rear window! That fookin hangin!

Agree with marco, dont like em without the side mouldings.

Trust someone to put a cossie **** take post up, tosser...

About having one as a cheap second car, ****, a rep will be cheap, but youl be very hard pushed to find a half decent complete RHD genuine 3dr cossie for less than about 6grand, duno bout u, but that aint a "cheap" car in my eyes!

they did 1.6 and 2.0 then cossies (which where a different shell (sunroof model))

later in europe they did mk2 ones!!! which were e n f reg, and where easily converted, these ran cvh's

gaz will tell u, we had a mint rep, built on a brand new shell from fords, it was immac, shame about the suspension (looked like a monster truck) lol
