Not the CSL ;)

I have a 1985 D Sierra Cosworth 3 door stashed away in storage, totaly original with 40,000miles showing.

I am going to be putting it up for sale during the summer months to get myself back into a MK2 Escort.

Going for a Grp-4 Shell and will go down the route of 2L 16V NA either in the form of a converted Cosworth engine or the XE Vauxhall.

Planning on doing single venue tarmac events and maybe some events over on IRL or the isle of Mull.

Its going to take a while to get going but having pondered over it for over a year i have finally made the decission.

Here's one of the deciders :smt055

I had a 3dr Cosworth with a Harvey Gibbs 400hp engine, it was mint until i bent it :whistle:

I also built a Renault 5 GT Turbo with a DJ Motorsport 4x4 Cosworth conversion. That thing was rapid.

I did enjoy it, loved the whole Cossie scene for quite a few years. :thumbs:

Keep us upto date with your project as i'd love to hear more about it.
