three personal faves for me a D reg moonstone blue cosworth which i made £9000 on

a granada cosworth which was awesome...never driven anything as nice even twenty years on,smooth,quick,comfortable and an awesome stereo

and as a taxi my R reg carina 1.8 ran it for years and it never ever went wrong,i swear to god ive never known a car like it

the cossies where the best, never drove one but the do look great, my nephew in law had a sierra rs500 a real one too not a replica , he sold it and i was sad to see it go, he is RS in the brain he now has a 10 reg focus rs in green and it is a great looking car too

they were a strange car to drive,get them in the wrong gear and off boost a normal car could beat you keep them in that sweet spot rev wise and they were brutal

i got mine locally off an old couple (how/why they had it i will never know but it was immaculate but run lumpy due to not being driven hard enough i assume) i paid 4000 for it and 3 years later sold it for 13000

i was always into my rs cars growing up but over the years and having to run a taxi it just became too much money now i just have my taxi and thats it

i did drive a friends s1 rs turbo recently(i used to have one when i was a younger man and loved it) and it was hideous...no power steering,torque steer,uncomfortable,noisy

at the time i thought it was wonderful i used to drive up the high street checking myself out in woolworths window and to this day though considering it is just a B reg ford escort they are one beautiful car they just look right

Always loved these.
