Challenge 438: The Ford Escort
I'm indebted to Deborah Morley for this week's Challenge. The car belongs to a friend of hers, and has obviously been very well looked after.

The car first appeared in 1968. How might Ford have promoted the vehicle in an advertising poster? Can you make this car look as appealing as possible?

High res is here.

My first car was a Mark 1 Escort. It was maroon and the gear stick kept coming out in my hand.

Ooops, that's right, and I should even ask the dwarf driver if he really has his license...

Yes, I know the twist was early sixties, but I was still doing it in 1969!

The Ford Escort was a very popular car, and was apt to be targeted my mindless joyriders...
