Oh I'll part exchange you some sun and few extra degrees for the 220! ;)
I agree with you on the general feel of the cars, they both look like they mean business but do it in a reasonably understated way, which seemed to be the Ford way for this era of their performance cars pretty much. Your TE50 is grey too I take it?

Yeap colour is called Meteorite, looks to be very close to yours.

Dont mean to bogan up your thread but since they are of around the same vintage..

A couple of interior pics
The seats are Recaros and 'Infra Red' colour and are thankfully in immaculate condition, they compliment the grey colour of the car really nicely even though red leather isn't to everyone's taste.
The floor mats are newly purchased OEM Ford mats from FordpartsUK with Infra Red binding, however even being OEM and genuine Ford, the colour is not an exact match, but do match more closely than the photos would indicate.






Aaaw crap try and ignore that idiot in the reflection, what an amateur lol

Yours looks beautiful, I've always liked the TE50s and yeah a very close colour match.
Haha lolled at 'bogan up the thread'! I think this is your thread anyway, isn't it?
Even the wheel style is strikingly similar to the 220's factory wheels.
Really nice car, and yes having them side by side would be a treat.

Interior shots...all I can say is WOW !!! Understated and very business-like is immediate impression.
Ford Oz could learn from their UK brethren.

p.s. Beware of reflections...
