Default How you would expect to see an Escort Cossy

On Friday Night, found a big open field, so decided what the hell... Had a little fun on the muddy grass.
Here's how the ol' girl faired the next morning, looking like she had done a few Rally Stages...








Here's how she look now. Sunday afternoon. After i gave her the once over. Although it keeps bloody raining so cant polish her.

Cheers dude... Its been deprived of some much needed attention lately though.
It had a fresh rebuild 10k ago, but in that time ive just been replacing the tired old parts for fresh jobby's. Its only standard, but id prefer a strong car before i get the power. (which hopefully shouldnt be far away).

The Focus RS is still a lovely car and i would love one for the New factor, but all that power and FWD, just doesnt add up.

But surely theres nothing stopping you seeling the Focus and getting the Cossie, got to be a Large Turbo though aye. Save the messing about if you want big power.

Cheers m8

Personally think Polaris Grey is the best colour, looks well hard. But Pacifica is definitly my 2nd best.
When i was looking for one, i didnt know about Polaris, cos theres not many on the market, so then Pacifica was my Fav.
