One of the 000 works mk1's, saw one doing a autotest at Witton Park yonks ago as a small boy and loved seeing it slide around the cones
Think it was 000 96 M, wonder where it is now?
Also wouldnt mind a proper Cobra (always liked the look and would love to feel how quick they did accelerate) they say Carol Shelby used to place a $100 bill on the screen and told the guy taking the test drive he could keep it if he could reach it - no one did
But will be quite content with my mk2 RS when finished and my Fiat coupe 20vt.

The car sits lamenting in a barn somewhere like Kentucky, He will not sell the car , even Steve McQeen tried to buy the car at one time without success. The owner will not even roll the car out for publicity shots or functions, it just sits in the barn.
This is kinda like the mk1 Escort RS1600 rusting away in a field in Ireland, maybe our Irish boys on here know more about that car.

The spare car which was caged and complete with camera mounts was bought by one of the crew shooting the movie.
