Hey bud. welcome first of all...
They are a pretty rare car of course, but there are some available. what one are you looking for exactly... have you tried carsales to start off with? they normally have a couple, trading post and ebay once again has some everynow and then. there is a site that has some, im sure Seano will come on here and give you a link. otherwise check out www.classicford.mine.nu and check the for sale section.

Ahhh your after the Escort RS Cosworth with 4x4 and the yb cossie engine....
VERY VERY rare.. i know there is one around someware on the site that seano knows. i think its 40k... you can insure and register them like any other car. but i think that it might be alittle more involved than the norm. Felhbie(sp?) has a Red Escort Cossie Turbo. the one with 4x4 and it is registered no probs.. there is also one out penright way in blue that is registerd.

My mates step brother has one ... around the Baulkham Hills area.
Blue in colour ... was recently in at my mechanics. Goes like the preverbial off a shovel. Still has the UK plates mounted behind the NSW numberplates.
