My dad's just shouted that he had a Mk1 Escort Mexico in that colour. It got more looks than his mates yellow mini and that was all that mattered  |

either way, any of the oldschool 'limey sorta greeny' colours are superb, all the gordy colours you don't see anymore like sanglow that used to be on maxis haha, dodgy metalic browns like on cortinas, & for those that remember the matra ranchero they had a crackin orange, better that the focus rs orange of the moment, metro beige, what can we all say on that colour but 'supergrannyfly' brong on the most cacky, dodgy colours, its the wat forward!!!
i'm not a ford fan normally but i like these cokebottle tinas & the jelly mold sierras, top stuff nightmaresracing, like what ya doing
