Have any genuine X Pack Capri or Escorts survived? Not the crappy fibresports stuff...

The genuine capri ones will be fibresports kits because they made the kits for ford, from what im lead to believe

Everything that's come out of here in since the Disco4 and Defender ceased production.

( And Speke since the Frelander 2 finished)

 

I meant Halewood, can't think how I got the two mixed up.

Lada decided to Barry up the top of the tree 1300 SLX Samara at launch, a school friend's grandad had one bought new in burgundy, replaced with a gold 1500SLX 5 door with the same dreadful bodykit, this time in gold. FML

I bet there are some counties that they will be not an option to purchase.

Worse, there was a Samara 'Flyte'

I owned one, it was dreadful, and mostly dissolved.

This is the only photo I have, oddly enough it was from the for sale advert.

To be fair Halewood (the village) is further away than Speke(Which my phone tries to auto correct to Dog shit)

 

And Hunts Cross Station is closer to the factory than Halewood Station and has a more frequent service.

 

So whilst it's always been known as Halewood it's actually not.

there are of course other, more extream barried up mini's than the cooper sport.

 

however none are quiet as over the top as the ERA turbo, which was sold through Rover's dealer network, with a Rover warrantee.....

IIRC these were Beta Coupes that Lancia had stuck in a field because the couldn't sell them and they were named HiFi.

 

My father had a series 1 Beta 1600 saloon that was recalled and crushed. Undaunted went straight out an bought another - bless him.

Only Tickford could look at the delicate little Beta Coupe and reckon they could improve things.
