Re: Limited production number vehicles.
Other limited edition cars are the Alpina BMW's, I believe there are a few about, and they must be numbered.
Re: Limited production number vehicles.
Wasn't there a few MK2 Escort turbos as well, around the time of the Sport ?

Yip, also a Alpine Developments conversion. Lynton Lomas has one in his stable of cars. Sidedraught Weber in front of the turbocharger, very old school.Waterhond wrote:Wasn't there a few MK2 Escort turbos as well, around the time of the Sport ?

Yip, works like a carb on top of a supercharger. The sidedraught in front of the turbo does look very odd. Will try and find a pic of such a set up and show you.gordini wrote:A single sidedraught Weber?? And the turbo sucks through it??sidedraught wrote:Yip, also a Alpine Developments conversion.

Re: Limited production number vehicles.
Something like this, note the sidedraught in front of the turbo.
