One owner, 50k and over 30 years of ownership, I would have cried, feel the owners pain. Thanks for sharing this story, all the best with the build chaps
Thank you for your kind replies .
There have been so many stupid comments on the internet from people being nasty for no reason , The owner had a incident that can happen to anyone at any time , and we are car lovers so most of us with sympathise with Richard rather than reply with childish comments .
This beautiful car will be repaired to the highest standard and will be enjoyed again by Richard for many more miles .
Thank you again from myself and OBO Richard for your support and kind comments .
North Yorkshire RS500 Specialists you know theres only 5 here in norway
Not nice to see someones pride and joy smashed up, But very decent of the owner and the people involved in rebuilding this beautiful car back to mint condition. THANKS GUYS 🙏
Some people havent a clue when it comes to bodywork repair and assessment, always spouting shit for the sake of it. The damage done to that cossie is not that bad at all, the only thing that would bother me is sourcing the parts, which you gentleman have. A bit of experience, know how and passion will see this beauty looking like new! Looking forward to see the repair process! Dig in boys👍👍
Those of us who are 1st class driver’s, WHO’VE NEVER had a stupid accident, and are Over 30 with at least 10 yrs driving experience!!!! Can cast the 1st stone which we’ll ignore anyway cause you must drive like a total pussy..... 🤣🤣🤣. Accident’s like this come under “s##t happens “.......🤦♂️🤦♂️😪😪😪😪😪. I’m sure it’ll come back as good if not better than factory. I’ve subscribed. And looking forward to the repairs fellas. Hook in. 👍👍❤️❤️
North Yorkshire RS500 Specialists thank u so much for letting Paul record this journey it’s appreciated m8
Shout out to Richard for letting us go on his journey with him looking forward to seeing the finished rs
Lee Bryant I second that 👍👍
Lee Bryant I'll 3rd that fella,and I'll guarentee that when it comes back out of Paul's garage at North Yorkshire rs cosworth spares it will be totally mint again,probs be better than when it was brand new!!!! It's awful when people start putting stupid story's on the net when they haven't a clue what there on about!!!!look forward to seeing the finished product!!!👍🏻👍🏻🔥😎🇬🇧🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’d feel sick if that was my motor, looking forward to seeing it finished!
So good of everyone involved to show what has actually happened.
Who hasn't crashed a car?! Big up to the owner it would be so easy to not let this content out and sell it on. Love the honesty!
Can't wait to see this finished. Could listen to Paul all day 👌
thanks paul and thanks to richard for letting us see this... hope he enjoys many happy miles
great video adam and paul big thanks to richard for allowing the car and repairs to be shown top man looking forward to future videos.
This will be a very interesting series of video's charting the rebuilding of this beauty.Fair play to the owner for giving permission to film it all.Can't wait to see it all fixed up perfectly.
I'm a retired body specialist and have repaired a number of these in my time, they do always look worse than they are with this type of accident. Looking forward to seeing the owners face when he gets it back
Well done Adam. Love the vids. I leave the RAF in 4 years. My lump sum is going towards a Cossi. My dream car. My dad used to drive them in the Police. Looking forward to see the work being done on the RS500
Why though. It will jus sit there cillecting dust, you wont drive it fully otherwise you end up like this dude in video, thousands down. Sierra cossies were good in there day but by todays standard of cars they are shit now.
wils35 if you love something and have wanted one since you got to see one in the then why not? I have been to some wank places, met and worked with some wank people and life is way to short not to. My life, my choices.
You won’t have to look or pay for it. I have earned my 22 year payout and will have something to cherish and hand to my children when I die. Yes it will still be going and won’t be a rust bucket. £40,000 gets something special.
@@benhayman9969 They were good cars in their day but by todays standards to spend 40k on a ford sierra is jus bat shit crazy. Yes its your money etc. but whats so special about it to be worth 40k?
@@wils35 it's not only about how quick the speedo needle gets up there, how cold the air con is and dsg fart. For some, driving an older car is the only way to re-live a better time
@@wils35 40 grand is 40 grand and a car is a car, whether it be a rs3 or cossie. Poeple have taste, and ben has good taste, you deserve to buy what you wish ben after more than 20+ years in the raf. Id rather spend 40 grand on a cossie than a modern powerful car with more electrical aided gadgets than an aeroplane. Plus why would you buy a modern car to lose money when you can pretty much split even on an absolute weapon
The owner must have nearly cried when that happened, I’m sure it will be like new again soon. Thanks for letting us see it 👍🏻
Paul should make a documentary on cosworths , I could listen to him all day with his knowledge. Spoke to Paul once years ago when I bought a replacement engine off him for my s2 rs turbo. Keep the videos coming
Hi Adam, great news that Paul is fixing it, you know it will be perfect. Thanks to Richard for allowing us to follow the journey out of his misfortune. Cheers, Alex.
Drove past this on the side of the road not long after it had happened, was absolutely gutting to see, but no doubt will be even better than it was once you guys have finished . Nice to be able to follow the story through, thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Gutted for Richard, glad he’s ok. We all know it’s in good hands now. Looking forward to Paul making her beautiful again 👍
It's a shame it happened but it's in the right hands to get repaired to a very high standard , have seen a lot of Paul's work and the finishes are second to none
Hurts to see that crashed
Yeah. It's a sad sight.
thats true, but at least the owner drives it. So we all get to see it driven out on the road.
I’m sure this unfortunate situation will not linger on. Appreciate your letting us in on the rebuild. Just be thankful it wasn’t severe damage to the quarter panel and suspension.👍🍺 good luck chaps.
That trailer with the series 1 RS turbo is amazing :)
Cheers for the update Adam can't wait to see it mint again !!!
ohh it will be mint alrite,,,,,,,like a polo mint ,,,,,,,,,,,,,holy sheet
I’ve seen that local to me and the transit , the guy drives like a tit in it
@@evo4ralliart Might have just been late to a pimps & hoes evening at the Ritz ?
DEAN IS HERE nah driving like a tool cutting up traffic and running red lights in Cardiff, not good
I saw that driving maniac trailer bender
Great video ,glad you got the TRUE story out there ,I’m sure this beauty will be back to factory spec in no time,nice one Adam 😉👍
So glad I've come off fb etc.....
So much shite on there !!!!
Good luck with the repairs to the gorgeous sierra
@LOUi TUBE agree its ruining society imo.. ... full of know it alls and overnight politicians.. Stick to you tube
Shit happens to all of us! FairPlay to the owner for allowing us to follow the progress, looking forward to seeing her back in all her glory👍
I remember seeing this all over Facebook and people writing the driver ran out of talent. Pisses me off. The guy had it from brand new and is probably heartbroken. Hope it’s back on the toad soon
Really hard to see, but cant wait to see it back on the road, love that Rich drives his RS500 rather than just sitting gathering dust.
This damage makes me feel physically sick, poor cossie
Looking forward to see the repair process! It in great hands with Paul, unfortunately incidents happen! I spun my first cossie on a roundabout and ditched it, lucky enough it was repairable and no one was hurt.
Done the same thing myself in a 3Dr. Richard's 500 will be good as new soon, probably met him when I had my RS500, many moons ago. Following you now Adam after watching some of your earlier vids, good job mate
I feel for the fella had it from new and you can see it’s well looked after I’d still be in tears if it was mine just a good job it’s being fixed and it’s not written off
I’ve seen a lot of the trolls comments on various groups on Facebook. Bunch of morons they are! Nice one for doing these vids to show us the build 👍
Huge respect to all involved. It's a fantastic example and has gone to the right guy to make it perfect, using genuine parts. We've all had a surprise in our pride and joy and we put them right out of respect for the car and the feeling of ownership.
Thank You to you Adam , the owner and the guy fixing it for showing us this - cant wait to see it being repaired - However , I'm no mechanic, but the flywheel/clutch sound effed, or loose, hope its all good with the engine , def get it checked im sure you will!
Cracking video again mate. Absolutely sickening seeing a car in that state, but it happens to the best of us!! Its definitely in the right hands. Keep up the good work 👏👏👍
That's one mildly wounded unicorn, great to see it's getting the TLC it deserves, may the lucky owner enjoy many more years of ownership !
Really good of the owner to allow the video series on the repair. Lovely car and will be back on top condition again 👍
broke my heart i seen the crash just after it happened so happy your fixing it
Another great video Adam, gutted for the owner but hopefully it’ll be back to its former glory before long
Went to c this car other week at Paul’s, had a good look round it, apart from the recent crash damage it’s great condition for the age . Soon be back to a stunning car again.
I had the same when i had my 2WD Sapphire, coming home on a night shift, mini roundabout, ass end went out and span a full 180, hardly any throttle, thats when I sold it as the family was on the way, was too risky to run the kids round in, but back then it was an amazing car to drive to work in
Cant wait to watch this Adam. Great the owner is letting you film it. Just a unlucky accident, we've all had them. 👍🏼
Glad to see this is getting repaired i see the post of it in the armco and thanks to Richard for setting the record straight for all the know it alls out there and letting us in on what actually happened its in the perfect hands now for repairs cant wait to see her done 👌
Your videos and content are bang on mate, one of my favourite youtubers 👍🏾
I got caught out with an RWD Cossie going over a crossroads myself, not even pushing it and rear end kicked out on a damp crest, not to be abused but the 4x4 was a lot kinder and more forgiving.
Be nice to see this finished.
Glad its in the right place to be repaired looking forward to seeing the process
Very nice and has the best man for the job on the case. I am just glad Richard knew who to call when things went a bit pear shaped for him.
Such a shame to see this beautiful iconic fast ford like this. But the guy must feel so gutted. My heart goes out to him. The cosworth has always been a unicorn to me. Something I could never get. Elusive. And just out of my price range. I’ve had an H plate xr4x4 and a 2.8i Capri. Among other fast fords. But I still would love to get a cossie. Sounds like it’s in the right hands now and I hope the ins is kind. I know it will be back on the road soon and I am looking forward to seeing it. The guys in this field of expertise are totally gifted. And it’s so good to see people like this still looking after these beautiful machines. Looking forward to the updates on this. All the best to you all.
Looks like a well looked after motor i hope the insurance company give the green light to sort it out fair play to the owner 👌
Will be great to see the updates on this fantastic car. Accidents happy it’s a part of life and like you guys say a cossie or any powerful rear wheel drive car can catch you out. Great vid adam
Absolutely gutted for the owner Richard, fair play for letting Adam to go film the Rs as it is and for him and Paul to set the story straight and put an end to the nasty keyboard warriors who feel the need to comment negatively purely born out of jealousy and frustrations of not being able to own their own RS 500, very sad imo. Think how you would feel if it was you in the owner’s shoes before making a comment!
Best of luck with the insurance and getting this back to it’s best.
Looking forward to seeing the updates on this. Keep at it Adam and Paul.👍
I often torture myself pondering the price of RS500 parts. 22 years ago I let my 3door base go for salvage after I prang’d it. Only damage was N/S door area and it was a total RS500 rep with all genuine parts (with receipts from ford) I bet the front bumper & rear spoilers are worth more than all 3 of my current cars!
Stunning motor..even in its current state..look forward to seeing the build up vid.keep up the good work of keeping another cossie on the road
Still worth a fortune mangled.
Best man to restore it
Such a crying shame, been there myself a couple of times but not with something worth nearly as much as this. Clearly it's in great hands, good luck with the rebuild!
A big well done and thank you to the owner for letting Adam Smith make this video, interesting to see stuff like this being repaired. big respect, could happen to any of us feel really bad for you, Interesting content looking forward to the next video
A couple of roundabouts in swindon that when it rains become very slippery almost got caught out in my old mk3 cavalier i was only ding 15 mph ,someone in a car the size of a micro spun right round ,Glad it is repairable
Stupid idiots on line coming up with remarks and slagging the guy off, it was purely an accident, atleast it's going to be back on the road, cheers Adam for doing the video and keeping us all up to date with all repairs,,,, thanks to the owner for letting genuine folk being able to watch this gorgeous car coming back to life
Makes you want to cry to see such a beauty in this state 😪😪
Glad the blokes ok... Real shame.
Looking forward to seeing the restoration...
Gutted for the owner, looking forward to seeing the progress with repairs. Btw whenever you video in that garage I'm instantly taken back to my youth … as soon as I see that BMX :)
Was never a big Sierra fan but rs500's are awesome wish I could afford one
Paul is on the job, no doubt this will be absolutely perfect once he's sorted it. It couldn't be in better hands!
Thanks for the video. It's a beautiful looking car and it's going to be really good when it's done.
One request though, can you put on subtitles? I'm a Londoner and can't understand what your're on about!
Just kidding... 😉😉😁
Keep the vids coming.
We all get caught out at times., keep these legends alive.
Great video, looking forward to seeing it being brought back to its former glory
Me to Kenny
@@Adam151082 Add me to that list please. A thing of beauty that has certainly been breathed upon.
Looking forward to this little series of videos. Super interesting guy paul 👍💪🏽
Here's hoping the whole sad episode will soon be sorted and the generous owner can get on with enjoying his Cossie.
Well done lads, I can't think of anyone better to be handling the repairs.
Will be so nice to see the back on the road video. It’s a Beautiful Motor fella
1st up love your videos, looking forward to see the rebuild on the Sierra Cosworth.
Good to see it being repaired and not broken for parts .
accidents happen, it's just another day in the cars life, it will be repaired properly with fresh steel and new parts so it's of no detriment to the car in my opinion.
Unlucky Richard, I’m sure it’s in the right hands, looking forward to seeing it when repaired 👊🏻👊🏻
One of the reasons Cosworth Drivers Club didn’t post the accident due to respect of the owner, looking forward to seeing it rebuilt in the best possible hands Mr RS500 😉😎
This will get you some good momentum mate. Good to see your growing Nicely already. I thought the nova video was gonna smash it tbh. But this will. Everyone loves a good storey. Especially when it’s a Sierra 3 door cossie. 👍🏻
That car is amazing, it’s in good hands with Paul 👌
Great video ! Looking forward to this series
Gutting to see it like that, it's in the right hands tho so hopefully she'll be good as new and the owner can have his pride and joy back in the garage 👍👍
This car was featured in I think in Performance Ford many years ago if I’ve got the right car. I’ve got so many magazines in storage but I’m sure I’ve got the original copy Adam.
It's in the best hands, you wont be able to tell it's been in a crash when it returns. One question - if it was down to the owner and no one was involved, why bother with insurance? that will catagorise the car now and impact on the value? maybe the owner never plans to sell or whatever but would it not have been better to fund the repairs himself? is it just down to the repair cost that the insurance are involved I assume?
It wont be catagorised as it isn't written off , they have agreed a repair rather than wright it off .
@@paullinfoot6017 thanks for clarifying, that's good news for the owner then. I wasnt sure whether it would be affected.
Hope the insurance company makes the right decision and this classic gets back to where it should be on the road !
Great channel Adam, good content and looking forward to seeing this progress. Question: does Paul do all the work on his own?
In all the time they've spent talking I've would have taken it apart 😅.
This is gonna be a great series cant wait to see more and probably with one of the very few who will do it right the owner couldn't wish for anyone better to do the job
Looked mint pre accident,at least they got the best guy to sort it.
It's in the right hands for its repair , respect for the footage 👍
Heart wrenching to happen to your pride n joy
Hope it goes back to original 👍
I have driven a layer cosworth as the turbo has a fair bit of lag and then comes on pretty hard so on a wet road with tyres not used often I can imagine spinning is easily done,
Many rear drive sports car owners will sympathise.
Ignore the haters and fingers crossed we all get to see this awesome looking car back to factory standard, Not major damage how ever replacement parts will do job and bring this vehicle back to its formal glory,
Im hoping to watch the on going progress on this vehicle, Please share as much as you can 👌😊👍
I’m gutted as fuck to see a car like that smashed up I bet the owner was crying tbh
crash was so hard that it knocked the steering wheel over to the wrong side!
Be good to see it repaired and sad to see it in that way glad the driver was ok
Easily done. Hope it gets fixed and you show the process.
Nothing that won't fix,it's a car that used as intended not a museum piece. Things happen in life, can't wait to see the next few on this
Thanks to the owner for letting us watch this.👍😎
The back end on these cars is lethal I’ve had it go a few times. Gutted
I bet that number plate has appreciated in value since he got it.
This guy clearly knows what he's doing but why drive it when it's making that noise something is clearly wrong why not push it rather than run it
If it’s not leaking fluids it’s fine to run it not gonna damage the engine any
You found the right guy to fix it
As soon as I seen the thumbnail I was like aww nooo. She's still beautiful tho. They have a lot of power standard its easy to think you can handel it until it hits something. Cosworths are the best fords ever made then its the mk2 escort imo. I have ever owned Aussie fords but have also owned 4 ford escorts my last ford escort was a rs 1600 mk2 2door i look back on that and think how stupid I was to sell her
Will be to glued to this. Cheers
