One of the better liverys since the 80´s.

The blue and white RS ones are better. The base livery is solid, but incorporating logos to the livery is close to MS Paint

Possibly.

But from your detailed critique, you argued the case so well its hard to get a toe hold on just how to refute you..

Just looks like every other Dubya Arsey car with different paint.

Who cares? How does it go? What's the gear ratios, final drive? gravel suspension travel to the mm?
Where are the Homologation papers scanned and online to read the technical spec..
Paint? and STICKERS? Who cares?

Evans will have a few personal sponsors but not much at all. With local companies sponsoring him, it helps them to have a 'spokesperson' and someone who they can ask to attend corporate events and so on. Local dealers are often supportive of these sorts of endeavours, but Evans is more of a pet project for Malcolm than anything else, I'd guess.

I don't know about Tanak.

A lot of younger guns in motorsport today have to really know 'someone' to get funding though - family members with personal companies or a prominent position on a board at a big company are lthe usual suspects.

Not much different to a lot of times in the past though, motorsport's never been cheap.

Probably Malcolm thinks that Eflyn is the best British prospect out there.Why not Kris Meeke ,who,s father prepared some cracking GP4 Escorts from the Sydney Meeke Motorsport stable ,I do not know .
I think that Ford supply the cars at cost or at a very cheap price to M Sport ,if not for free .
they are stripped ,and parts not needed are sold on through a Ford parts dealership somewhere .
Maybe M sport as a company make a lot of cash from building and selling customer cars ,and the package they sell with the cars .But it can only be classed as a private entrant ,whereas VW and Citroen must be classed as works entries

Did the MSA not pay for Eflyn seat at M-Sport last year ? Malcom give a seat for free.... lol you must be joking and Marko Martin or someone is paying for Tanaks seat ... especially after the last time he drove an M-sport car , or kept crashing it more the like . Malcom hasn't go the balls to go out or take a chance and find an up and coming driver that will win rallies.
He's not like Dave Richards who gave Colin,Richard and Peter their chance and won drivers titles with them . Just remember a Ford only ever won a drivers title with Ari Vatanen - and that time it was a private team . Ford will never win anything in its present format , and the history is there when your persisting with the likes of Latvala , and Mikko Hirvonen for years - statistics don't lie

This livery is a big improvement over the almost black livery from 14.
but remains to be seen how it looks outdoors and on TV.

Prices of various M sport cars. Shot was taken at NEC autosport fair birmingham.

LOL, S2400 doesn't have price tag
And there're not S2000/RRC..

RX=Ken Block..?? (Bryan Herta Autosport will drive that in GRC)

[Mad cat jnr]

S2400 maybe 1 or 2 that exist and probably not for sale. S2000 production has been stopped for a while and all are have been sold I think. RRC they could have done like the R200 conversion items from WRC or something like that, didn't seem important for them
