estate agency in Chester, i know someone who has one of his
famous cars,and its a cosworth too

Okie Dokie.

a guy i sold a car to was Dennis Osborne. he owns D-O-M-E motorsport.
and is a expert in Cosworth rally preperation.
he built Escort cosworths and sierra cosworths for ford motor company.
anyway Russel Brooks drove this car



When Russell finished with the car,the guy who owned the company
ANDREWS HEAT FOR HIRE kept the car back instead of the usual
selling it on or building it into a 4 door cosworth like many rally teams
were doing.
this car sat in the guys garage in a carcoon and came out once a year
it was a special car as it won the BRC,and when M-L-P ceased trading
D-O-M-E looked after it.
anyway one day the bloke came to get it out and a MOUSE had
got in and invited its mates around for a party and started eating
the car,it needed allsorts of wiring and trim replacing
Bleedin mice seem to love Cosworths
if your wondering why its got Welsh vernacular on it, its because
the car did rallys in wales,in England and Irish events it was in english
