The white isnt the ex-Olle´s one since he bought it in Italy and the car is newer (as far as I know the Olle´s one is a 1997 version (the year when the escort made it debut in the WRC) whereas the white one is a 1998´s one (the Ford escort WRC last year in the rallying world championship); furthermore, he went to Italy instead of Spain or France just in order to buy the escort with the latest electronical features such as the active differentials, sequential gearbox
Although the red Escort is running under WRC specifications, actually its a handmade Escort with many grA parts; in fact its a grA Escort transformed to the WRC one (id bet that the only WRC part is just the rear suspension), and It doesnt have any electronical device such as the gearbox or any active differential
And the third candidate is the escort which was driven in the spanish gravel championship some years ago, and the car is going to be transformed into the tarmac specifications; Moreover, this escort, alongside the Olle´s one, was driven in the WRC in 1996 under the Malcolm Wilson Motorsport support
