- We didn't get the chance to drive the RS500 in our last video and Owen was chomping at the bit to give a Cosworth a go.
Big Lee Stevens let Owen drive a rarer Cosworth than the RS500. God this Sierra Rouse 304R throws you back to the naughties.

Great video, love Cosworths, they were working class boy racer cars, Cossies's RS turbo's, Renault 5 Turbos etc. Etc were boy racer cars , was a time when cruising was fun back in 90s,now it's all about people wanting status symbol Audi and BMWs on Finance to prove a point to the Neighbours
We all have our passions, but must admit I miss Southend without speed cameras & speed bumps in my Renault 5 😂
@@MotorAddicts I used to go Southend ,travel from Wolverhamptom. It was a great time back in 90s early 00s
@@gmain1977 miss the naughties
Another Essex Boy Racer here that used to be a hot hatch driver back in the 90s. Used to love Southend and racing people round Chelmsford and Colchester. Great times! I fought hard against the Essex/Ford rep so i used to be a Vauxhall man with my GTEs (1.8 and 2.0 16v) I had the subs blaring out The Prodigy and went to Max Power weekends and Bug Jam (had a couple of Beetle owning mates too) I miss the 90s bigtime, it was the best time to be in my teens and into my twenties.
@@davekennedy6315 mate they were the days, you prob raced Stu & Owen at some point in Chelmsford near Dukes
You’re spot on when you say it’s all about what you wanted back in the day. That example is in amazing condition.
Big Lee has done a great job on this
I love the way these squat! So much character
🤙🏻
Reminder set and ready for another fun packed edition of MOTOR ADDICTS !!!
Cheers bud 🤙🏻
I love Fords, most underrated cars out there, when I see videos like this I’m glad I’ve kept mine for 24 years, these cars will never die as long as people like you are out there.
What a Sunday morning video! That cameo of the 205gti was fantastic. I’m Canadian so I never get to see these locally, but I get all the nostalgia of visiting my grandparents outside Manchester as a kid.
Loved these Cosworth videos guys. What a great guy letting you drive such a rarity. Sapphire 4x4 in my dream garage for sure.
100%
Had my sapphire 4 x 4 for 25 years...totally standard ..still get the stupid smiles after all these years...this Rouse is a nice thing and kept standard worth a fortune.never floated my boat...the body kit just looks stuck on.
Nostalgia is definitely today's word of the day, spot on.
🤙🏻
Cracking video. Superb when big Lee gives it some boost and the chatter off the waste gate gets them smiling 🙂 Love the video content keep them coming guys 🙌
Thanks Gav, means a lot 🤙🏻
Awesome vlog again Owen 👍🙏😎. Must of had a blast mate in the Cossie stunning example ! Used to watch myself Andy Rouse etc at BTCC so to have an example from him is just a gem of a car ! Stunning ! 👍😎
Cheers for comment bud 🤙🏻
Major respect as the car is a credit to Lee and that turbo just sounds awesome. Thanks to Owen and Motor Addicts for showing it on the channel.
More than welcome, Lee’s done a great job so far 🤙🏻
Lovely old skool cossie Sierra, what a great oppurtunity to drive one! I remember seeing these in Max Power mag when I was in school, styling still looks great IMO, I'd love to have a razz in one now. And what a sound, great stuff motor addicts
Cheers buddy 🤙🏻
😁👍👍👍 Wow just spent half this evening watching your vids. What a nostalgia trip that was.. RS Co'sworth heaven.. RS500 what a beauty and that Rouse 304R just stunning.. Going back to the late 80s and early 90s I was lucky enough to have a mate only 19 at the time who had a well paid job at shell as a technician and bought a moonstone blue 2dr cosworth new and had it chipped to around 340bhp astronomical at the time.. Yes we had a blast and great memory's. Awesome channel and videos lads 👍
Sounds great. Old skool cool. Love seeing it pitching as you shift. Sick content gang! 🤙🏾
Cheers bud, we loved the noise of a strangled chicken 🐓
Came across you on OG's channel and shocked at your amount of subs you boys deserve 300k subs easy. You will get there lads and when you do I will proudly say I followed you from when you had less than 10k. Keep up the amazing content 🤜
Glad your following us on our journey mate 🤙🏻
Great vid fellas
Grew up with these my uncle had a few from brand new absolutely love em
Nuff respect
Cheers bud, much appreciated 🤙🏻
Thanks Owen and cheers Lee! 😁
top video as always owen .respect
love the sound
🤙🏻
The two main problems with cosworth’s cracked dash and sagging headliners, dash is good, headliner not bad but still sagging a bit, but everything else is spot on. That’s a very rare beast too, love the style of the front seats.
The headliner is getting replaced before he sells it. 🤙🏻
That lovely 205 gti you spotted is Sorrento Green, 1 of 300 only made in that colour as a 1.9gti 🤓
That’s the bloody colour, done our head in trying to suss that one out. Cheers bud 🤙🏻
comes with a green/black interior aswell IIRC.....my third favourite colour after miami blue and was it lazer green? not to be confused with VW Lhasa green?
Cossie, 205 GTI and a volvo 245, video made 👌🏻
You always knew when a cossie was at a cruise back in the day as you just looked for the massive clouds of tyre smoke and everyone getting rowdy at a burnout, ah those were the days 😁
We miss them days too
@@MotorAddicts me too, I was driving round in a caged up Olympic Blue Mk1 RS2000 replica back then when everyone else was driving boring corsa c's. Never had any hassle from coppers at cruises as they all used to have them back in the day so they always waved me through when everyone else was getting stopped and checked 😂
@@mscustomlures 😂
What a lovely Cossie! I miss seeing loads of these belting round Essex roads being driven like they stole it (cause a lot of the time they had haha!) I used to fish as a kid right by Fords Boreham test track and used to often hear these being thrashed round. Even saw a RS200 at a Ford garage in Witham (the reg was RS200 something and had been featured in the magazines back then) Fast Fords are in the people of Essex's blood!
Amazing example of a Cossie, great video guys 👍🏻
Cheers buddy 🤙🏻
A Smile Every Mile every time i drove my flint grey RS Cosworth I owned 2 at one time I so wish i kept mine now and look after it as today there is no way i could buy one of these again for under 3 grand
Sadly them days have gone
@@MotorAddicts Like the Lotus Carlton another car i wish i had bought when they were going for 15 grand now totally untouchable
getting one under £30 grand is getting difficult! at least one that doesnt need major work!
Another fantastic video 👍🏼
30 years ago I was into cars 30 years old, this confirms I’m still into cars 30 years old.
Lovely car & a great video. Mate had a 3-door standard cossie, in moonstone blue, in the late-80's but I could never afford one (nor the insurance cost!) & had to settle for an XR4i in caspian blue instead. Sapphire Cosworth 4x4 in magenta was my dream car.
Such cool cars, the XR4i was epic to
The Andy Rouse cosworths where always super looking cars great content
Cheers Rob 🤙🏻
A classic,haven't seen one of these for years
Very nice video mate, super rare now and looks and sounds amazing
🤙🏻
My old car! Lee has done a fantastic job restoring it wish I hadn't sold it to him after seeing this
Lovely car and he’s deffo done a great job 👏
That's a piece of art right there.
Beautiful looking thing 🤙🏻
Growing up in the states and seeing Cossies terrorizing UK streets was such a pinnacle in my mind for the love of cars. My dream car to this day is a Merkur xr4ti. I always day dreamed about building one to a Cosworth spec.
Its got the old skool cossie squat when you floor it, love these 90s power icons
Got here through Officially Gassed and immediately subscribed 🤙🏻
Cheers for joining bud 🤙🏻
RS sapphire has to be my favorite ford ever i should of kept my focus st170 loving the ford content
Cheers buddy, may have to get more Ford stuff on 🤙🏻
Iv been a fast ford fan all my life and never heard of this limited edition cosworth how cool is that 😯👌
🙌🏽👏🏽💯
🤙🏻
You know how to subscribe to the good channels
I had a 1990 Flint grey Rouse, Mine had the rare cloth trim as most opted for the leather option.
Mine was totally standard
I've got a ford sierra cosworth estate F20YBT with over 400 bhp and the feeling you get in a cosworth and the looks you get ,everyone that knows there cars will always give you a thumbs up as you come flying by, there's no skool like the old skool 👍 😎 great video lads 👍
Bet that’s a cool looking thing. Cheers for comment buddy 🤙🏻
who did that conversion? there was NEVER an RS of ANY sort made in an estate bodyshell.
Yeah its a great feeling especially when you have built it yourself. 👍🏻
Love the Rouse seats. I tell you what Ford have done some superb seats in their RS models over the years from the fishnet Recaros in the RS 2000 mk2 to the big bolster RS Turbo seats and the wingbacks in this Rouse Sport.
We'll just bypass the horrific sparco seats on the mk1 RS Focus, should have stayed true to their heritage a d stuck to Recaro
@@mscustomlures Ahhh yes THOSE were not their finest hour 🤣
Still got the promotional video for the Sierra Sapphire Cosworth which was presented by the legendary Jackie Stewart. I was lucky enough to have owned a 500 up version which unfortunately caught fire.
Watched these fellas on officially gassed proper sound geezers why ain't they got more subs than than this deserve whole lot more subscribers in my opinion keep up good vids mate
Cheers for following mate, we are still quite new to it and the vids will get better and better the bigger we grow. Much appreciated 🤙🏻
@@MotorAddicts no worries buddy keep up good vids
@@ddb7777 🤙🏻
What a gorgeous Cosworth and fantastic guy, defo knows his cossies! :)
He knows the ins and outs, can’t wait to get his escort on
It’s all about the nostalgia 👍 and that is one sexy Cossie 🥰 and that 205 was sorrento green.
Next summer Motor Addicts road trip to Crail Raceway for some quarter mile action.
That’s sounds a good idea 🤙🏻
Used to have fun trying to keep up with these in my old R5 GT Turbo. Always got beat but the sound of roaring 4inch exhausts and dump valves will always stay with me.
I was sensible and only ran 14psi but that saw me at 150 odd bhp and 180ftlb. The car was under 800kg so was nippy to 80.
Am stunned by current pricing, I'd have another in a heartbeat but £12k+ for anything worth having stings a bit. I bought mine for £600 and went halfs with a mate on a £450 one with a blown head gasket.
If there is a car id kill for from that era - R5 GT Turbo Benneton edition (5 or so made by Renault dealer in Leeds) cant even find a picture of one now.
100% 🔥 content
Awesome car and the guy knows his stuff!!! No comment for Owen.. he is an absolute legend 🙌
😂 not when he turns up wearing what he does
@@MotorAddicts he is one of a kind 🤣
@@hristohristov8787 that he is 🤣
Love the way the old Sapp Cozzies dump there @r5e under acceleration
They do sound cool 😎
Cant wait for this love a cossie
Think most have a soft spot for them 🤙🏻
Super cool old skool power, add to that a bit of MA magic and you can't go wrong fellas 🤙
Cheers again bud
Reliant Robins were built in Tamworth, when production stopped Reliant made all the body panels for the RS200, Collins Performance Engineering in Congleton built one over 600hp, it was mental.
😳🤙🏻
👌👌👌 J reg 4x4 saph this way, with original 40k on the clock. Big respect to you guys and Lee! 👊🍻🍻
We gone Cossie crazy 😂
Cos @ motor Addicts are worth it.

@@wilf18 read above ! He loves it.
Awesome sierra, so damn clean!
Is mint, Lee done a great job
Beautiful car I love the wheels where can we source them from looking for a 4 stud set
I have one in cloth beautifull cars. This one looks just like mine. Awsome video lads!👍
the 2 people who disliked this are blind and have no soul lol amazing car!!! Amazing channel :P
Cheers Jez, much appreciated 🤙🏻
The funny thing about people saying "oh why do you drive a 30 year old car" etc is that there were people 30 years ago with brand new sierras looking at guys with 50s and 60s jags/triumphs/whatevers saying "oh why do you drive a 30 year old car" - nothing ever really changes.
Owen ur soooo lucky like I said in a previous comment the Sierra cossie to me is the ultimate car I've never seen a rouse b4 but I'm in love 😍 what a machine... And omg listen to the flutter
That chicken getting strangled sounds epic 🤙🏻 stu was lucky enough to own one back in the day that cost him 2.5k 😂
@@MotorAddictswhen I was 15 b4 I even had a licence I used to own a sapphire cosworth and I sold it for £1500 😢 always remember hitting 140mph with an astra diesel police car trying to catch me haha good old days

Very nice rouse cosworth wasn't there also a tuning firm called Brodie Britten Racing who also dabbled in cosworth Sierra's as well I wonder if there are any of their cars still around also ?
We are unsure, best person to ask is big Lee
Don't know his details guys but if you ask him I'm sure there was a company called that who did tuning on them .I'm sure there was
@@michaelkitchingman6023 BBR was, in part, Dave Brodie who also raced Cosworths back in the day, like Andy Rouse did. and as far as i can tell theyre still trading today, although run by what i presume to be his Son, James now..
That plate next to the gearstick was for a Mul-T-Lock gearstick padlock. It had a Black plastic covered metal body and Yellow plastic covered shackle.
Now you know.
Lee seems like a top bloke! Proper geezer
100% cockney geezer 😂
That's probably worth big bucks knowing how much mint original cosworth of most varieties go for nice motor great vid again
I can see your channel just taking off. Your a natural on camera bud .
I owned a 4x4 Cos registration J666 COS , I swapped it for my Puma..
Puma was better tho :( 1.7 with a T 2.5 Garatt on it :) few other bits ;)
Thanks for a nice vid
Cheers Trig, bet that puma is epic!!
Phat. I av seen sum1 who has both the 302 n 304r, well jealous, beauty ride
Makes me want one even more! Peugeot green was sorrento I believe 👍
🤙🏻
Money can't buy you happiness but it can buy you a COZZIE
😂 true that
A lovely car, ah the essex cruise, fun times!!!!!
💯
That’s a nice colour very nice cossie aswell 🔥👍🏼🇬🇧
🤙🏻
Love the way the become more cockney on camera 😂😂😂😂 Like an episode of Eastenders 😂😂😂😂
😂
I used to have a Pacifica Blue Escort Rs Cosworth, aka The Bullet eveyone used to call it, had it modied by A&J tuning in Enfield back in the day, really regret selling it now!
A saphire is definitely in my dream car garage!
Bring it
What's the stander tyre size on this ?
Can't beat the old skool bud what a motor ya should get the sapphire 4x4 on to compare 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Not a bad shout
I've seen so many of these with collapsed suspension in the back lol
A friend had a RWD sapphire and I had an 8v integrale back in the 90's, to be honest there was nothing to split them in performance, think we both paid around 5 grand each for the cars back then.
The flutter sound it's the Cosworth engine??
Yeah, those where the days. A Sierra Cosworth on the highway and what was that in the mirror ... A metallic blue Scorpio Cosworth. 😊👍
🤙🏻
This would have been a TWOC'ers wet dream back in the day.
😉
I know it’s a resto mod ect but a set of escort cosine wheels on that would finish it off perfectly!
I can't drive but love 80s/90s Fords lol
I'm surprised he sells any cars with that passion :)
He doesn’t like letting them go, think a tear drops from left eye after every sale 😂
Beautiful example sounds good to
🤙🏻
Amazing car. As a leather repair tech of 20yrs I'd love to restore those seats and steering wheel back to new. Especially that wheel.
Great video thanks.
Never been the biggest Cosworth fan, although I respect them as being very good cars with a great motorsport connection.
I was always more into Japanese & German cars, but owned over a dozen Mk1 & Mk2 Escorts which were 'THE' Ford for drivers IMO.
Cosworths were for rich wide-boy's from "daaaaan saaaaf" lol.
It's always the first car in my dream garage. I absolutely live these yokes 👌Savage vid 🤙🤙
That’s headcorn I know that area lovely car man
Hope they done the headliner
Lovely car m8
I'm getting Martin Kemp vibes lol
205 gti in that colour was a goodwood with a wooden stearing wheel same as the 309gti
Majic video and music and having Lee Mr cosworth into the bargain easy to like then subscribe class 👍
Cheers Colin, much appreciated 🤙🏻
Another rare car from back in the day was the cavalier 4x4 turbo.👍
Awesome car the Cav!!
Never drive a saph but my 3doors was so easy to drift then just straighten up when let off so easy lol 😎
What a beauty!!!
Is Stunning in the flesh to
Really like it but always preferred the 2wd and 4wd without the kit
I think Stu would be with you on that
