I had an EVO VIII 260 GSR and £2,500 saw 343hp and 340lbs it was bloody awsome bang for buck unbeatable, did an airfield day in it and the car was superb and there was not much on the day that was coming past and I'm no Lewis Hamilton
having said that....
if you love your Cossie then do not be surprised if you find yourself in the Newsagents buying FastFord and Performance Ford once the EVO novelty has worn off
but that all depends on you, if your like Lyn then you won't look back, if your like me and the Escort Cosworth is more than the sum of its parts you'll be back
