Not a normal cossy, but a BDT special with Xtrac 4x4 running gear.

Standing quarter around 10 secs.

That sure is a mean looking motor, could lose the Gillette of the back though, although it does serve it's purpose on that one.

Yes, Ford has (and did it first)...

Note fab paint job, sexy splitter vents and unusual and rather nice rear wing...(not an F2)
Every other non-Ford built Puma Cossie is a replica :twisted:

I can't think of any specific sources. It was built as a prototype which eventually sired the S1400 and S1600 rally cars and finally the FRP.

I'll never forget the first time I saw pics of this car in Auto Express back in '98. I simply could not believe I was looking at a FORD...this seeded my eventual decision to own an FRP! I mean...just look at it :mrgreen:

Would sir/madam like a sporty Fiesta, or what about a nice quality Focus...or how about this :twisted:


You almost wouldn't care about the quality and how it drives, you just want one!
