Smile MK1 Sierra vs Mk1 Sierra Cosworth - differences

Hi guys,
It may have been asked before, but I'm new here and I've tried some searches, but I can't find anything.
What are main differences between the standard 3dr Sierra Mk1 & Cosworth (aside from the engine & interior) ?
If there is already a thread for the this then please point me in that direction

Thanks in advance

Seem to recall the transmission tunnel may be wider, but other than that it's cosmetics, like the front grill, front bumper and bonnet louvers.

The bodykit and spoiler of course are unique as well.

All the running gear is different.

You indeed can use Sapphire Cosworth 2wd parts, but then still a few parts are different. Like the front hubs, front arb, rear trailing arms and rear arb. The best setup is a mix of the two.
