Undoubtedly Cosworths are cult cars and have a massive fan base and following, I dreamed of owning one as a 15 year old kid when I first layed eyes on a moonstone three door in Ealing west London

I owned my 4x4 Sapphire for 13 years and pumped thousands into it as you do, it was stage 3 for many years but when I strapped a gt30 to it the fun began but after spending a load of money on the transmission and chasing 500 horse power the engine let go (ends started to rattle) so I'd hit an imaginary wall with it and it was time to go. I didn't want to pump any more money into a 24 year car at the time and I wanted something newer after buying my mrs a ford s max, after driving that I said to myself I want a newer vehicle.

Many cossie owners I know went for the MK2 focus rs because say what you will about it "it's a Volvo" etc etc they are still a great car, I was asked by someone at rs Combe this year "do I regret going over to the new skool?" My reply absolutely not, I would not have a 20-30 year old car again after owning the MK2 frs

Saying that if I had the spare money or came in on the lottery lol I probably would have another one escos or sierra 500 but until that day I'll stick with my focus rs, great car, aggressive styling, very tuneable, sound great, I'm still smitten with it 3 years after buying it
