Indeed it is. there were 2 at the show both 2.3L turbo, but one of them had mods and was intercooled, the other was just stock daily driver.

The car was called MERCUR XR4i here in the states and was based on the Euro Ford SIERRA COSWORTH, other then that I dont know much more about them... I assume they are AWD and a nice 2.3L Turbo motor... probalby good for around 200HP which was plenty for back in the day...

I'm having BAD thoughts about those new shape Mustangs, actually.  :-*

Saw a Shelby one in the car park at Farnborough air show at the weekend. Very nice.

.. and that TR4 looks beautiful.
