Title: My priceless Red Aubergine '95 Scorpio Cosworth
Post by Cosray on Jun 22^nd, 2010, 9:09pm

My own priceless Red Aubergine Scorpio Cosworth. Built in Cologne on July 12, 1995.

Until 2004 owned and driven by the Cologne Police under license K-NL 1943. It had a dual antenna-rod for Radio and Mobilofon.

Imported to The Netherlands and licensed under 50-GG-GB with 144.344 kilometers. Now it's at 246.500 kms.

Renewed about everything since then: engine, autobox, looms, hubs, heater matrix, tubes, exhaust, flexy-pipes, tires, generator etc.

Still, considering purchase + import + renewals + petrol + oil + FUN + COMFORT: priceless.

Some good photos there, thanks for posting them.
I have an aubergine 24V too, but it's not in as good condition as yours. These cars are getting a bit rare these days aren't they!
I love mine, has to be the best car I've ever had, and I had a Jaguar XJ12 series 3 once. Think that was the worst one!

i think that steering wheel looks pukka!!, i gotta hunt one down
a friend of mine came round tonight in a lexus ls430(i think) and although im not a massive fan of them (bit boring looking) it had a fantastic wooden steering wheel , it was more wood than leather , really nice
