A 220SE fintail isn't exactly a rocket...it is just twice as fast as any diesel model. I have this thing for keeping up with traffic and accelerating faster than a glacier on highway on-ramps
 
I had a Matchbox version of one of those Escort cabrios when I was a kid.

Yep, it had the squared off headlights. My toy has been lost to time for many years.
 
Matchbox made a toy of an earlier Escort RS too.
