well after 2 attempts of owning a series 2 rs turbo and chaseing rot and many other thing i have now turned to sierra cosworths ,was a bit worried as i know nothing about them as well,one came up for sale on here lad called simon d7ake bristol rs chairman he seemed a honest bloke ,arranged a time to go and see it,enlisted the help of blacky and glennyboy big thank you lads for going all that way,got there simon got the car out of the garage and to my delight was a cracking car ,simon took us out for a ride in it and loved it,went back to his had a cup of tea and a chat and the deal was done,just like to say thanks simon your to honest lol.also had a big smile all the way home couldnt believe how fast it was scared myself a few times ,best moment was when i left the subura tho coming home.now i have to change my siggy blacky.

 

Get some pics up then!!

 

I remember driving my 1st 2wd saff home, 1st rwd car, 300+bhp, 60 miles, poor tyres and was snowing

 

It was a good day out
I will sort your sig when you get some pics
I was glad I was in my car on the way home as the exterior temp was up to 29.5 lol you looked warm even with all the windows open
that scooby gave up when you both went past me closely followed by me going past him lol
I think Simon wasn't wanting to let it go but atleast ti will be getting well looked after

 

it was certainly hot blacky will get some pics up today if i can get myself away from it.

 

you'll love it until the paranoia sets in.....

get some piccies up soon

 

lol if he leaves it as it is he has nothing to be paranoid about

 

im cleaning the wheels for the fourth time fixed the alarm and a bit more cleaning

 

well done mate on your first cossie just got mine few weeks ago aswell im never out of it costing me a fortune of petrol but love every minute would nice to see some pics fella

 

im cleaning the wheels for the fourth time fixed the alarm and a bit more cleaning

 

I remember buying my first Sapphire Cosworth about 10 years ago now.......21 years old and LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!

I remember my 1st one, 135 mile trip home, on 20 year old dunlop d40 tyres that were virtually bald, had zero grip, many sideways moments, was running like a bag of shit 187bhp on the rollers on stage 1!!, that's crank power btw, tyres were so shit used to break traction in 5th gear even with so little power in the wet/
tabetha

 

my first was my last nice looking car tho

 

Nice one m8.
I remember my trip home in my first one in 1997 drove it home from coxhoe listening for noises lol

steve

 

steve we went a little slower on the way home than the way there but that was mainly due to traffic lol

if you spend your time listning for things going wrong there is no point having the car dive them enjoy them if they brake fix them but never drive them thinking whats going to brake next

 

the only noise i could hear was chatter all the way home lol

 

Very nice car, easily the nicest Cosworth to drive IMHO, I love 2wd saffs. Stage 3 on a T34 is a rapid rapid car, that's where I would tune it to and leave it.

 

it does look clean, dont like the sideskirts though atall.

 

its very clean hasnt been in the rain for four years and you can tell does need a little bit of paint but its solid and a strong engine

 

looks well mate not sure on the skirts tho have FUN!

 

I'm missing it already, but I collect my new car tomorrow and cant wait....

nice to meet you all and glad it's gone to a good home...

see you at the shows...

 

I said to myself a little while back that i should of owned a cossie by now and i will, im waiting on a few certain members on here to put theirs up for sale. Theres a few i love and i guess i will just wait or start pm'ing asking lol. I missed out on yours ginge, was gutted at the time as i knew i had to finish my series2, not buy another car lol.

 

the drive home in your first cossie is awesome eh i remember tellin myself to take it easy home in 4x4 however some nonce in a Boxster cut me up so showed him up a little!

Think I spent about Ł100 in fuel that day just driving about and showing it to pals!!

Enjoy mate

 

Simon is a top bloke but his missus is even better (pics please )

 

I also remember buying my first Sapphire Cosworth over 9 1/2 years ago!

Wouldn't believe it's still in the garage

 

them rouse skirts on it?

 

yeah they are

 

does look a nice car but the skirts do look out of place as it doesnt have the rest of the kit to go with them

looks very clean though

 

looks nice and clean will get one at some point when the inshurance is not so high.

 

i like that a lot. cant wait til i get one

 

Ditto, bought mine in 2001 and still have it

Steve

 

got my first one in 2004 and it was broken lol we fixed it run it a while it broke a little , sent it to the tuners he fixed it , i took it to santa pod and broke it then it sat for a number of years at my parents house looking sorry for its self so now ive completely rebuild the engine fitted a second hand diff (not completly happy with that) got a fresh T34 .63 for it and am now running it in and needing new injectors and chip but driving it this afternoon i still love every minute of it . body work needs a little attention and buffing but it still fun .... enjoy it

 

put some standard sideskirts on it mulla ,


does this mean you have a load of series two bits in the garage i can have as you wont be needing them lol

beef
