The styling of the Series 1 and the 3DR Cosworth..(Which i think are VERY similar) are CLASSICS.

2 of THE best looking cars EVER imho....That is why i have owned them both

I agree with that mate. Styling is spot on if theres no rust! Wouldnt mind one if i had the money!

So are most of these cars running perfectly everyday? Or are they getting to the end of their life? Be a pity really.
