The boss's cosworth
Some pic's just after we had done a full engine rebuild. It then went to motorsport developments for a live map, anti lag, launch control, closed loop lambda control, air injector and wasted spark kit.

Me and my brother had just about finshed the engine and went home for the night and the next day he was cleaning it and left a cloth ontop of the timing belt and then started it up. i could hav killed him and its not my car. He bent 8 valves and we had just had the head all done by cylinder head developments

Looks like a max power car to me.
Odd colour choices under the bonnet and the rear. Risers for the bonnet are wacky. Very 1995 to me.
However - the spec is excellent. With the colours sorted and the risers sold to some kid who doesn't know better this is a proper car.

AS said before mate the raisers arnt on anymore. and what look's very 1995. i was just young then but still cant remeber seeing lods of cosworth's with this sort of spec. Its a more upto date cossie than most on the road today and is running about 460bhp, could do more with a bigger turbo but dont think the gearbox will like it

I know the risers are gone. I'm just saying sell them to someone who doesn't know how trash it makes a car look. Might as well pocket some cash out of it.
The spec is not the look. Yellow and risers were big in the 90s. The spec to me is the mechanicals, tune wheels etc. Spec is short for specifications as you know. As I said, the spec is nice and it contrasts with the out of style look. As mentioned, he took the first step ditching the risers. I don't see the colours being changed any time soon.
Pop the bonnet at a Ford day in the summer and I'd most likely just walk past this due to the yellow. Am I a car snob? No - just only have so much time in a day to look at cars parked in a field. )

well there has never being a car made that evey1 likes. If there is 20 cosworth in a row and they all had the same colours and same thing done under the bonnet it would be a boring show mate

Exactly. So why are you worried about my dislike of the colours? Not every opinion will be positive.
My 3 door looks like shit to some people I'm sure. When my saff is done some may think it generic or cool. All I care about is that I can drive for 5000 miles and it would be the only LHD saff.
I'm sure the boss loves his car. I'm just not a fan of the colours obviously. Can't post stuff online and expect everyone to dig it.
This girl may not look like all the others I pass on the street but she aint pretty.
I am one who respects when people zig instead of zag. But it doesn't always work out.
