I would look at S2 ERST or FRST.

Martin

Robs Frst

Wouldnt buy a Rs turbo unless it's a FRST. there a stunning diamond white example for sale on here.

always get a decent priced mk5 zetec s, they have held their money ok for a few years now

Mate it's a shame you sold your Saph, looked a real nice example. Thought we'd persuaded you to keep it in your other thread (below).

i was up for keeping mate then the garage taking my engine out had it 3 weeks and was too busy so dont no how long that would of taking, then i got told that the rebuild might cost alot more then i first though it would of took far too long for mne to be able to sort it but ill get another dont worry lol

if you dont have money, IMHO dont buy rs turbo os cosies. they are getting old and need maintanence, and for that you need money.

My best bet would be a base model escort mk4, and in time do a zeetc or rs turbo conversion. But if you dont have funds now mate, ure going to sell it just like the cossie

Lowson

If you're definately getting another cossie, what about an Escort van just now? Cheap as chips to run and if you can keep it when you get another cossie, be a good back up motor too...

As a few of the guys above have said, if a cossie is what you really want, then buy a shitter to run around in and save up until you have enough dosh to buy a good one and a bit more for emergencies/work that needs doing. It's always good to have some spare cash available for when something happens.

STAFFY OWNER

Trouble is if he buys a shitter he will probably end up in the same situation as he was in with his last Cossie (needing costly repairs). You can't save if your constantly throwing money at repairing the old shitter. IMO it would be best to buy something cheap & reliable and save for a good Cossie.
