Think its Mauve Purple? Not sure if thats the right name but its definately a dark purple

Probably most of the cossies left today are enthusiast owned & hardly driven. Ford never made enough

Absoloutely fucking love them would give my right arm to own one.
Balls out.
Anyone who says "its just an escort" deserves a kick in the teeth then to be made a mockery of due to their lack of taste and understanding of what makes a car "good"
And whoever said "all other cossies are ming" i can see where your coming from with the saphire. But have you actually ever seen a RS500 PURE SEX!!

i think a car needs to be driven, what the point of just looking at a machine that is all about performance

Awesome 
Altho why do so many people copy them 
An also, they often do it for the slighlty later model (the one with lights in the boot as well) as that is SOOOOOOO obvious
