The reason it's going
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 #

I had a 3dr Cosworth with a Harvey Gibbs 400hp engine, it was mint until i bent it
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. Keep us upto date with your project as i'd love to hear more about it. |
