General Comments

I have owned many Cosworths but this was my first Escort (My previous car was a 400bhp RS500).
I bought it in oct 2002 for £17000, the car wasn't standard as it had a GGR stage 2 tune to 310 BHP but I have since uprated it further to 385BHP.

I find the Escort Cosworth a pure drivers car, its excellent handling, brilliant driverbility and excellent reliability make it a great car to own.
Although it drinks fuel like no tommorow it is fantastic for motorway driving and also a very comfortable and sturdy car that handles like its on rails.

But the best things i find about the cosworth is the looks you get while driving it, people stare and think "is that an Escort?"....and the flash gits in there Mercedes and BMW's, i just smirk and leave them in a cloud of smoke!!
