dudley ◊ 2008-06-04 10:52	Sticker set is different... I think this is a Zakspeed Escort, or a flat-front RS2000 with a Zakspeed replica kit. And from live4cars' forum: "I seem to remember a Zakspeed arched (the big box arches), flat front RS2000 with Harrier stripes being in the opening sequence of Minder." -- Last edit: 2008-06-04 11:00:35

Cycolac Fan ◊ 2008-12-27 02:08	rubber ducky is quite correct, the Escort was thought of as being too flash for a guy like Terry so it was written in that he bought that white Capri instead. The Escort was still included as it was an expensive prop that needed some publicity I always thought the Escort was fitted with X-Pack arches though.
