The name of the bodykit is "Minicos". A mate did one years ago, think the side skirts are modified from the escort cosworth kit.
BTW he doesn't mention cosworth anywhere in the advert

Paddy, no your assumption was correct, because he just repied and said "its a mini thats supposed to look like a cosworth"
so you might want to take back the apology, you were right all along!

That'll teach me for not refreshing before posting
I suggest you do say hello to chip at a meet, he's a top bloke and normally in the middle of the biggest group having the best laugh
And if with all the smileys you were intimating that you were going to try and queer him up, I wouldn't bother he doesn't like cock.

Ps
apologies to you mark, as i also call it by the nickname "the custard" or the "sierra rs custard"
But i suspecct if you lick it that it tastes nothing like custard at all.
so apologies to you for that, as i suspect it will bother you greatly!

i don't want to pi$$ on anybodies fire here BUT
if memory serves the original car that this kit is trying to duplicate is a version that marcos did on the mini, hence the minicos as mini marcos had already been used

Forgot all about the marcos, i think that predates the 3 door as well, so maybe it was ford owners ripping off the minis when they start calling their sierras as cosworths

just remembered, it was dennis adams (i think) designer of the mini marcos that designed the ERA and he had designed the minicos just before ,which was going to be the ERA mini but was deemd to boy racer and they wanted the car to be instantly recognised as a mini which apparently this wasn't
end of my knowledge on the minicos i am afraid
