They say once youve owned a Cosworth,you will be drawn back to them again,and again.. Ive had 3,and now im 100% i NEVER want another 1!!!

Buy German everyone!!!!!

Pete..

 

what german car u get then.

they all really do make sierras look shit don't they... lol

 

give it time
i keep sayin that as well whenever i sell mine
but 5 cossy's later i cant wait to get mine on the road again
gluten for punishment i am

 

caution: Can the op please back away, help is on its way

 

ahh youll come bk to the dark side pete ,

what you gonna do owning a german car ??

turn up to meets on time and be all polite and upper crust ,

 

Had an S3 for 2 and a half months now,and a i fuckin love it to bits!!!!

260bhp,
quattro,
heated leather/alacantra seat,
RELIABILITY!!!!!!

I just love it.... Just have ago,what you got to loose?? Il tell ya what,your AA car for starters!!!!

Pete...

 

very true,dont think ill ever own a cossie for myself again.
once you see past the blue oval and see there are affordable decent well made german cars out there-
ive had e39 m5,e39 aplina b10,e36 m3,e46 m3,audi s4,audi s3,audi rs6

all awesome cars!

 

Depends how much you have got to spend tho dont it??? Not everyone has the kind of money to spend on the others mentioned! Pound for pound the cosworth is still unbeatable to me!!

 

So they should imo seein as the sierra is over 20 years old ffs!

 

Or as Clarkson would say be a cock.

 

Threads like this really amaze me on PASSIONFORD honestly

 

Exactley what i thought mate

 

Passionford is community for people with an interest in Fords, not just people who own them!!

I'll likely never own a cossie again either. I like my creature comforts too much now.

 

Buy German everyone!!!!!

No interest in ford here as above

 

Hang on,hang on.. Im not slating Cossies,i love the things to bits,and still love working on them if i need too,im just sayin (as per my 1st post) that when folks say that once you own a cossie,you wil always have them,isnt true... As like ive said,ive had 3 now,and as much as i loved them,i wouldnt have another now...

Pete..

 

i love the things to bits

HA HA your not cured

 

Buy German everyone!!!!!

????

 

I never said I wasnt interested in Fords - I love cossies, had 2 myself. I will also love them, and if I could justify having one as an out and out toy, then I'd have one, but I cant.

Besides, I am still a Ford owner - all be it a shonky P Reg Mondeo TD Estate

 

Love them,but DONT wanna own another BIGGGGGGGGGG differance...

Pete..

 

Your German cars won't have the character. No German car has the stigma of a Cosworth.

 

Very true!

But given the current climate, I'd have an E39 M5 over a cossie any day

 

EVERY Series 1 is German

 

as is every three door cosworth sierra

 

german cars aint fun :P

 

As was Hitler!!!!!!!!!!!! But i dont want him either!!!!!!!!!!

Pete..

 

M5's are

 

Err, i dont know how to break this to you mate....

He was Austrian

 

wasnt the escort cos made in germany aswell?

either way i said i wouldnt own another and almost boughta skyline as i wanted to go jap, until i found this escort cos i bought

but ive always wanted one since i was about 14 so went for it, ill get it how i want it, keep it for a couple of years then sell it on, but it will be my last, i love cossies to bits as they can be really good cars and do have a alot of characer and respect on the road compared to 90% of cars out there

after ill go jap, as i hate german (bmws,mercedes) cars bar the audi rs 4

 

I completely agree. I would have to take the M5 in any climate.

 

i said this only a few weeks ago but every now and then a cossie pops up that reminds me of an old one or matches my idea of the perfect saph and i get cravings like a friggin pregnant woman does .
Even tho i know 100% they will never be as reliable or comfortable or as my bm i still love em.

 

What happened to your FRST?

Do you miss the red R5?

 

im getting a e39 m5 next year

but will never sell my 3-door ever................................

 

He's entered the third phase, denial!
Next phase is yearning, followed by purchase.

 

Of course he will have another, by posting this thread he is already admitting defeat by 'pretending' he is immune!

 

your wrong 3 door and es-cos would get more looks than any audi etc in most peaples eye's

dont forget 3 door cos are bloody rare these days on the road where there will allways be shit loads of the same audi on the road

 

The only cure for the cossie disease is total poverty or death

 

i went french and never looked back

 

Is that because the mirror fell off?

 

good come back


but unlike the Ford the french crap carried on going where are as the Ford broke down

 

My 205GTI (which was my first car) floated away when we had the floods in Northampton.
