    was in the passenger seat of one of these with Miki Biaison at the wheel blatting through woodhill forest, Auckland, New Zealand back in 1993 as an 11 year old...my uncle, John Wheeler, was the chief engineer (and also responsible for the RS200)

    I remember the first time I saw an Escort Cosworth in the 90s, I was riding my bike from my friend's house down a country lane and saw it chasing a Porsche 928, the V8 roar of the Porsche and the whistling turbo of the Cossie stuck with me. Two of my favourite cars just having fun was a site to behold!

    one of the greatest cars ever, cheapish at the time, good for shopping, driving daily, or rallying. and looks the bollox straight from the showroom. there isnt many cars that i wouldnt change from the shop, but thats one of them!

    The greatest Cosworth(pause) - "in the world"! It was the ultimate Cosworth. Clarkson owned two of them(one was green - I believe). I think his first was vandalised with the rear wing getting sawn off.

      Same here. My dad used to have one of the last models made and it broke down on the way to a Christmas party, he left it on the side of the road for the night lol and thumbed a lift to the party. And because of that story I really want one lol.

    With some tweaks, they could actually sell that car today! The styling was spot on, then they threw a Cosworth into it. I so wanted one - went to my Ford dealer, but it was £29,000. I had recently bought a house for £45,000!
