Ford Scorpio Cosworth 2.9 V6 24Valve

this is prob the bst car ive ever owned . th only problem i have with it is fuel ..... it cost tooo much (fuel that is).mine has the square lights not the bug eye . ive had no problems with it . sadly i must sell it . i would like it to go to a good home . not sure how much its worth could someone help

I have owned three of these cars and must say i have not had anything which comes close to such luxury for very little money. Remember, these cars were around the £25,000 brand new and their is not another executive car to succeed it yet!!

In general, luxurious,comfort,quite rare now and stands out from a crowd.

At present i own a 2.3 silver ultima saloon with all round professional tinted glass which looks stunning against the moon dusk silver paint.

Drives superbly with no faults, a definite reccomend especially if you are looking at the Galant or Omega! Scorpio first! Iv'e owned them all..

not bad bit overated i had a genuine 36000 miles scorpio cosworth 2 owners not that quick comfortable ,handling poor on 15"inch rims. cornering bad replaced wheels with 18" rims much much better. ghia spec on mine could not work out why it had no sunroof or air con? towed caravan well to france locals trying to help me fill it with diesel when i had problem using unmanned filling station. buy onother maybe? but out classed by 24v senator for handling and speed. now drive as a second car audi quattro 200 turbo will chew up and spit out scorpio'cosworth and senator for speed handling etc. also no rust all galvanised body. built by german quality and engineering a lot of power from a 2.1 5 cylinder engine.

I have had three of these cars, there very fast for what it is, smooth drive no road nosie, gear box is very smooth to. only thing that does my head in is the boot lock every1 i have had they have stopped working but cause the electric bit that opens it. i fit a switch in the car to it so if know what your doing easy fix. shame though that parts are had to find, and is a dying car, cause of this. and also easy to make fast if know what your doing. The Ford Scorpio Cosworth 2.9 V6 24Valve is a a very enjoyable all round car i think.

I had a 24v Ford Scorpio Cosworth 2 years ago and was very impressed with the acceleration and top speed (70 of course). 2nd gear jumped a bit on engagement (auto) but did not affect ride too much. Tyre choice is very important as back end in snow or ice is similar to a boat. Interior is very nice especially Ultima with leather and walnut effect on curvy dash is stunning. ABS light tends to illuminate whether system is gubbed or not but ford should sort problem if concerned. I now have 12v ultima 2.9 v6 and for the second time the battery symbol is illuminated but no electrical prob seems to be there. I noticed a stray wire on alternator and reconnected it, this put light out but recently has came back on. Depreciation on these cars was frightening but was much in the favour of drivers who enjoy big, comfy fast cars for sweetie money. So many motoring journalists jumped on the bandwagon with the cars looks but I ' m sure they were not the best looking either (Mr Clarkson ' ), I love the look, especially the rear. All cars nowadays look the same and lack character, I think people just didn ' t have the cojones to drive a car with looks that turn heads.

The Ford Scorpio Cosworth is a great car over all. Smooth and very comfortable, very powerfull, nice looking car!

Overall a car that is very good value for money. It's well equipped and with ABS and traction control it handles very well for its size. But don't pay over the odds for it, accelerates well, brakes are second to none, it will stop from 60-0 in half the 240ft the Highway Code refers to. if that. Just make sure the first thing you do when you buy it is change that thermostat - they are chronically sticky and if it doesn't let the water into your engine the repair bills will look like they were in Lira!!!! An omega MV6 is better but for the money this car is very hard to beat. The Cosworth head makes no end of difference. With a better stylist and all cars equipped with this top half engine the Scorpio may have taken over from the BMW 5 series. But unless you get this one you may be disappointed.
