Came across this beauty the other day

My daughter sadly lost a nearly new Michelin Cross Climate to a particularly savage pothole and whilst having a replacement fitted I came across this beauty.

 

The owner was happy to chat and gave me permission to photograph it (although i obscured the reg plates)👌

Not any old Firenza but one of the 204 (two hundred and four) "High Performance" (aka droopsnoot) cars made.

I had the 1300 engine Viva E coupe with the same body shape but minus the droop suit

A Droop Snoot no less👍

 

The bodywork looked to be mint

A pretty quick car back in the day I imagine. 

 

Must admit I always preferred the Vauxhall offerings to their Ford equivalent (Manta vs Capri / Firenza Droop Snoot vs Escort RS2000).
