some of those vids are so bad 'get onto the path kids my mate in his cossie is gonna boot it !!!' and it looked slow anyway lol

they are cool though but i'm sure as said above in std form they probably arnt all that fast

however i did have a play with a saph a few years ago on my hornet 600 (not a very fast bike but should out drag most road cars) and i got totally killed by it hahaha without much fuss it just pulled away upto about 140 when i couldnt hold on much more got a gsxr after that lol

im sorry but between the escort cossie and the sierra cossie, escort wins hands down. So much more power and not as many problems.


I will shoot you in the face.

There were a couple of nice examples of Fords at the Bucket and Spade run on Sunday.

Saad, if a picture paints a thousand words, how many does a video say :ermm:

as 1991_white_mini said turbos are quite vunerable on the old sierria's.

And lets face it, the Escort Cossies didnt just look better, they performed better too.

(this video was made in the late 90s, when McRae and Burns were both still in their prime, hence the comments)

reyland did a sierra aswell

they crashed the escort on the gumball rally and built a sierra instead, one of the things i remember about it (read a magazine) it has a nissan skyline sequuential gearbox mounted to a custom bellhousing that fits there nis cosworth engine

what i dont get is quaife do exelent sequential box's so why go through the trouble of fitting a skyline 'box :ermm:
