Information

This 1995 small turbo Cosworth 1:43 scale Vanguards model represents a Lux, meaning it was built with a passenger airbag, an electric sunroof, and a stereo with a separate CD player below. A leather interior was a very commonly specified option on Escort Cosworths, especially Lux models, but this car has a #Red Hexagon# velour interior, which is now rare and sought after by enthusiasts.

The current owner, Cheshire-based AIan Bull, is a Senior Quality Engineer at Ford#s Halewood Transmissions Plant and has worked there since starting an apprenticeship in August 1990. Alan is the car#s fourth owner and bought it from dealers, Junction 28, in September 2014, after a long search for the right example.

Alan, an RSOC member for over 30 years, wanted an unmodified example and was attracted to this car, which had then covered a documented 33,000 miles, because of its originality.

The third owner, South Wales-based Ciro Ciano, had kept it for 16 years, looked after it well, and only reluctantly sold it to allow him to buy his dream car. Alan and his sons, Thomas and Michael, who both work at the same Ford plant, have rebuilt the suspension using original parts and carried out various other jobs to keep the car mechanically perfect. They have resisted the temptation to modify it or turn it into a concours car and instead they enjoy using it as it is, covering over 6,000 enjoyable miles.
