Had a great day shooting the video Gary. Hopefully we will get chance to do more videos with it. Maybe out with your RS. Cheers buddy 👍

The Sierra Cosworth 3 door and the MK2 Escort RS2000 are two of my favourite cars of all time, irrespective of money, I'd rather have one of those than an expensive exotic Italian or German marque. That Cosworth still looks fantastic to my eyes. Lucky to get to drive it.

I'm grateful for owners like him who actually enjoy the cars instead of hiding it away. This is what I call a true enthusiast at least he will have all those good memories instead of that extra money in his account

Blast From The Past, classics that will never date. Great Video Gary. 💯 👍 Cosworths in White 👌 🤍

"It's a grinbuilder", love that expression. Good to see these kind of cars actually being driven!

How have I not seen this!! 😮 You seem pleasantly surprised with it, glad you enjoyed it. 😊👍🏼

Definitely a great remember seeing them a kid on the road and in show rooms and having the model of them better than the modern day equivalent

Never get tired of watching a Cosy review. Awesome 👌 👍

Minta Mate. It makes me proud to be 55 years young lol Cheers. I'm converting an XR4Ti here in the States, I'm originally from Cheadle Hulme Cheshire now in Florida. Thanks for the Video and the trip down Memory lane 80's MAGIC

Wish you had done a walk around so we could see this beauty in all its glory

That’s the way to respect someone car.

The little scream from The cossie as you feather the throttle Rwd a lot of fun in the dry , beware in the damp A stage one is all you need to liven up the the drive in one of these I had a few of them

I had a RS 3 door (D444JUA) & I loved it I only did 200 miles a year & I had it for 7 years sad I had to let it go

Reminds me of all things things about cars that I've missed over the past 2 years!

Very very beautiful one. What a legend! Thank you for your petrolhead’s videos. So good to watch! 👍🏼😁

Great video....straight into it too ....no long drawn out boring intro. I get exactly what Mike means cars like this now shouldnt be about the power numbers. I agree id enjoy a,stick one it proved itsself back in the day....itll never win over todays modern tech but thats not the point.....

Great video pal, always nice to see someone's first driving experience in a cossie.. 😁😁 I'll never forget my first drive of my brothers escort cosworth. The reason I ended up getting my saph cossie. No other car gives you that sound and smell... Awesome.. 👌👍..

Great video Gary, glad to see the old girl is up and running well Mike... Good times 👍

Completely agree standard is the nicer drive! The t5 gearbox on the 2wd's is brilliant 3rd gear goes on forever! Great video Gary!

Thank you both, for such a great video for a great car! Really enjoyed it 👍

One word CLASS

My fav cars 3dr cossie in moonstone, lucky enough to own a 380bhp 2wd sapphire though for my cossie kick, great video.

Cracking car!

Epic thanks bud 🥳

Great video! Lovely car! The Cosworth is what I always look up to. The next generation in general will look up to the mk2 focus rs. Mk2 RS is on my bucket list.

well done getting behind the wheel of that!!

Never driven a Cossie, so very jealous you got to go for a blast! Own an XR4i Sierra and it's a hoot to drive, so the added Cossie power and setup must put it on another level.

Around 95 myself and workmate both had 16v gte's, we both got rid the same week I bought a j reg gsi 2000 my work mate bought a 2 door Cossie in the 4 years I had my cav gsi 2000 my mate had 7 cossies and an Escort cosworth ,he had a 500 and a Roush sapphire all coming from well lane turbos Batley.we were on very good salarys in 90s and 00s so he could afford to swap them so much .

What a great video Gary , lovely owner and lovely car , made me miss driving my sapph ill have to get her sorted this year ! Well done 👍🏼

Amazing video dude. Cheers for sharing

Wow so lucky I love those cars a dream

Just managed to watch your video..I had to laugh at some of the things you said ..I say the same all the time..I dont use my sapphire much these days maybe 3 or 4 times a year but every time I take her out I laugh about how rattly she is and old and smelly...I love it...I do take her long on distance runs but the journeys are so different when doing it I my mk2 rs focus....wont be to long before the mk2 focus will feel really antiquated.. Great video...all hail the Cosworth...standard all the way for me...Nice one Gary.

Lucky man getting to drive that even luckier to own it

The smile on your face says it all. Wish I bought one when they were like 10k haha

Great video again Gary👍only thing I disagree with is when Mike said that lambos mclaren and them sort of cars are drivers cars, personally the older generation cars are the drivers cars lambos and all that are just for posing in and getting likes on facegram. Like you’ve said before in your RS you can’t just get in it and put your foot down you’ve got to actually drive it other wise it could end up nasty.

Cosworths had a variable vane PAS pump so it’s heavier at higher speeds

Awesome car. Very jealous

Brilliant vid, great car 👌😍

THAT SOUNDS Fing Awesome I love the dump valve on the older cars suits them much better great vid whats next on the channel mate

Mega video mate, not jealous one bit (... ok, maybe a little) 😂

Growing up in the 80s I loved the sierra cosworth particularly the RS500 with the massive whale tale , always been a Ford man myself, until recently , as I’ve got older and priorities have changed I love my Range Rover, but I still have a touch of boy racer in me with my treasured 06 ST , don’t make em like that no more .

Brilliant video Gary though only 10 minutes. Walk around would have sent the time ballistic. Owner seems a top man keeping it Alive.

A rs500 is my dream car , forget all the supercars !

How lovely. Hehe

Lucky man

more cossie stuff please :)

Stage one map? I thought the ECUs on earlier cars had to be chipped, and aren't programmable with customisable fuel maps.

Most videos you see of the Sierra and Escort Cosworth are of youngsters doing wheelies etc they have no appreciation of these cars. Best cars Ford ever made. Could not afford them way back then but now I can I am too old.

😍😍

Standard cossie power is sub standard compared to today but give it stg 3 or above its a different animal. Wait wait wait then boooost and hold on. Owning a 430bhp 2wd saff and a Cortina with 370 bhp it's great fun👍🏻👍🏻 A mk2 focus is cool and will do everything you want it to BUT a cossie will give you a bitch slap at any point.!! Respect your elders😂😂😂

Poor bloke looked terrified

Great clip are u driving around stow longa / kimbolton area??

I would love to drive one of these, just as much as the Escort RS Cosworth. Does anyone know where you can do a drive experience in the Yorkshire area?

Love these cars. Is there any chance of getting the spec of the car I.e HP & torque?

Seems a bit strange as someone who drives a 1960s Cortina hearing someone say the Sierra feels rickety.

My first car was a 1987 merkur XR4Ti and it looks almost identical to this. Not saying it’s the same car by any means, the double spoiler is the same, the wheel design is the same, even the interior is the same…. Why couldn’t the US get a cosworth… I mean the parts were already here…

I want to se driveby 😄
