Hi everyone,

My new car is a 1988 Flint grey completely standard Sapphire Cosworth 2wd, I will post some pictures up soon its only covered 75k miles, had 3 owners and dry stored for last 13yrs.

Nice!! There really must be something about them, cant remeber the amount of times someone on here has sold a cossie saying never again. Then a year or so later there is a thread up titled "my new cossie". Love it.

Went to Combe Saturday in the Cosworth I've had a few bits done,
I must say it was brilliant thanks to Karl Norris it absolutely flew, thanks also to ex touring car driver skid Scarborough for storing it since 2001 and for the suspension set up best Cosworth I have driven as mildly tuned road handling car. )))
