Later watching the extras of The Office, a clip is shown of Ricky Gervais been giving a tour of locations by Jimmy Carr in his 75

Interior shots only and they dont last long




Real wood dash & bullet chrome mirrors



Shame the exterior of the car cant be seen

A long time friend of mine is in car leasing and back in the day Ford struggled badly to shift any Scorpios meaning he was offered £1500 for each one he managed to get out on a contract. It’s the balance of life, one suffers and another prospers.

Was never a massive fan of that face lifted american looking Scorpio but earlier ones were cracking, beautiful interiors that you don't get any more.
