Wedding car - Metro 6R4 or mk2 Escort

A favour to ask....

My sister is getting married in August and my future brother in law is a major rally fan. In particular he has a real thing for the Metro 6R4 and mk2 Escort and we are trying to locate an owner/car who would be willing to drive him to the church in one of these cars. There's cash available (and beer too) for anyone who could provide this service.

Anyone got one of these cars or know someone who has?

The wedding is on Sat 11th August @ 2:30pm in Hampshire.

Any leads appreciated!

How about a nicely worded letter to the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu?!

540 miles, that's a crime...

Someone buy it and rag it about

It's worth it just for the windscreen sticker

Looks like the RSOC has come up trumps with a lead for a guy on the Isle of Wight with a mk2 Escort replica rally car in Rothmans livery

We got rid of the 6R4, but I know someone with one. I could ask?
