Listen to the people who have never driven/owned 1......

Ignore all their bollox and then listen to people that actually own 1

As you know I've had 2 Cossie and I find the 1800 a car that I know won't let me down and have a great laugh driving it....especially on track



Anyay I looked at a few and had to go for the Mk3.5 model (L reg onwards with fuel flap) as they redesgined the car and semed to have stopped the rot issues the earlier cars had..... main problem they have is front lower arms which on the Mk3 models are only available from Ford (that I know of) but on the Mk3.5 are available after market (I destroyed a set after 4 track days).

I used mine for 4 track days last year and no no problems at all only having to replace the front arms and 1 set of front pads
