Hello all, well have 2 'toys' at present....

The first is my Sierra Cosworth RS500:







And my second is a work in progress, an XE powered Mk1 Escort:





The thing is though, I am contemplating flogging them both to get just one car....perhaps a Noble M12? (But then again.....I doubt it....LOL)

Thanks for the comment, neither are for sale at the moment, as just a thought....

Mind you, the Escort is currently stripped down, as going to get it resprayed very soon, and put in some new seats, harnesses, etc......

Mk1 Escorts are gorgeous, and anything with a Cosworth engine is worth the money. Nice cars. yes

Lovely fords Lee.

This car has been around Derby since my youth. I have seen it drift around roundabouts during nights out in Derby city centre - it is a real piece of work!

I love the 500. Cosworths are still damn sexy cars despite their age. I would love to find out where my old sapphire is these days or whether it is still alive. One of the fastest cars I'd driven when I had it many moons ago. Nudging 400 bhp when I sold it.

Always fancied a 500 but never found one in the right condition/at the right price.

Leemarkadams,

You weren't up at Kames last weekend were you ?
Your number plate looks familiar. There was an RS500 up there on Sunday.

Totally agree, those cars are beautiful. Both very rare and just what I love about cars!

That Sierra Cossie is awesome mate! I think i've seen you around Bournemouth a few times. Am i right in thinking that it's a HRSOC car??
