I had a RWD white Sapphire Cossie...on an E plate...bought for £5700 in 1992...sold it 18 months later with a blown head gasket plus a few small scars for £3000. It was standard to look at..not even an aftermarket exhaust...but was supposedly running 350bhp.Dont ask me what had been done to it..if anything...but shit...it was quick...damn quick.My God was that a banging 18months...I ragged the crap out of it and really did abuse it(it was a gift..so I didn't appreciate it like if I had paid out for it...wrong I know.). I was 26 and won't ever forget that car and the fun I had in her... Ive had some nice quick cars in my time..but there's something veeeeeery special about these motors!! Why oh why did I sell it....
Guys those are two beautiful cossie's. This was when Ford really knew what performance was. Cannot get better than a cossie whether that be the Escort or the Sierra. Although have always had a soft spot for Sierra's. This was an era when cars were made to feel like you were connected to them, not like the modern fords of today where the computers do everything for you. A real drivers car. Nice one lads.
@@onthelimiter6529 need to get some of johns toys on the chanel if he has any? Shame about one he spent all those years on that ended so soon. Your cosworth is a minter too mind😍
Brings me back to 80s when escorts and Sierra cossie,s were the cars to have if you were a top boy ,that sound makes me hair on me neck go crazy 🤪, keep safe and be lucky lads
Nice! I miss my 2wd saph cossie in magenta , leather , stage 3 . I sold it for peanuts in 2003 . beyond gutted, still... i enjoyed 3 years of hooning it from age 21 and never slapping a tree with it !
Love dan’s cossie I’ll definitely have to get one! My father owned one and omfg I need one they’re so clean and so fun! I’ll happily pay anything for a good/ mint condition cossie. That 500bhp cossie is fkn mint, very very clean engine bay and I bet that’ll be so much fun in Mexico😉😂 both of yous for the reaction once Dan puts his foot down is priceless😂 great content lads
It’s great on those open Mexican roads 🤣🤣🤣 thanks for the positive comments mate, really appreciate it. That’s magenta things a weapon, makes mine feel a bit sluggish
Just found your channel and a big fan of the Cossie guys. A friend of mine is waiting to pick up his cossie upgraded engine, not sure what has been done but all I know is that it’s 20 grand upwards. I will post the specs when I find out.
That burgundy Sapphire Cossy is probably the colour I'd choose now, used to be moonstone blue or diamond white equally, funny how things like that change over the years
Wow,would much rather have the cossie over the Porsche any day a true proper motor,awesome machine and the sound in just perfection wow wow wow!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Just rebuilt the T34 on my escos in october wish i went for a pulsar now 🙄 cracking vid lads keep the format as is 👍 **should i hit it with a stick** 🤣🤣
Fantastic turbo that pulsar. Funny enough I’ve just bought a hybrid turbo technics T34 for my saff, got it at a price I simply could not pass on tho otherwise I would have went the pulsar route too
@@onthelimiter6529 great vid👍 interesting on the turbo, was thinking of getting my escos T34 rebuilt with billet wheel ect, will have to look in to these pulsar turbos, never heard of them before now
@@onthelimiter6529 definitely mate you’re welcome over any time I’m still waiting on some body cuts etc to sort the metalwork out so in the new year might be a good shout
Iv just thought the exact same thing, never really noticed how American the front end looks until now. Weird how you look at cars differently as you get older.
I sold my immaculate saph cosworth for 3k straight as an arrow 😩 this was back in 2005/6 mind, and the lad that brought it blew it up 6 months later. Burnt to a crisp 🤦🏼♂️
laugh out loud...me too!! but that was in 1992ish...we had no internet to troubleshoot. Took me 2 hours to find that poxy button!!! Its a fuel cut off in case of a rear ender I believe.By throwing the spare in the boot..it triggered the tripswitch.
..there used to be a black 2 door hatch here in New Zealand in the mid 90s ..it beat my friends 440 dodge charger in a street race ..extremely rare now
I want that car!! ( With the dump valve, I'm from Essex!) How many tens of thousands would a bit of kit like that cost now days? 911 to a H reg Sierra? I totally get it. Back in the day I sold my 255BHP Escort Turbo for a 911. I loved the Porsche, but except top end my RS was MUCH quicker lol. P.S Just subscribed
Now everyone knows why I have a tow rope in my cars, to tow Dan's cars back home. Great cars Dan, fixed with a length of wood being wacked about the car. I think the Flintstones had more reliable cars. Basil Fawlty did the same once - same effect 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Excuse me pops but I do believe last time that rope got used I towed u in one of ya broken down Mercedes off a bridge which caused a traffic jam which made the news? Correct 🤣🤣🤣
Oooooh, now be careful, I don't drive around in a car(s) 😅 that are automatically followed by a recovery truck. Remember your ringtone is the AA Breakdown tune
Brings back memories of my blue Sapphire Cosworth back in the day I had no insurance no road tax but who was going to catch me.. used to get chased or round a manner great days.. no ANPR cameras... and the fastest car that police had was the senator and Volvo lol lol
Awesome video guy's. Spools nice 👌. I know of another 500bhp cosworth that you might be interested in doing a feature on with being from your ways. Magenta ELE

Stick it back in the garage and forget you ever saw it, your wallet will thank you 👍
Blasts from the past, I've owned so many old now classics it's horrifying, wish I'd kept them all

Lovely motors and great video chaps

Takes me back to my boy racer days in the 90s 😍
Been up near my area there lads great vid love these cossys vids 👍👌😎
Best colour you can get for the Sierra cosworth and this one sounds like a beast I'd love to have this over any car you just can't beat a cosy
Magenta is beautiful, The car is just a thing of beauty to look at
That burgundy Sapphire Cossy is probably the colour I'd choose now, used to be moonstone blue or diamond white equally, funny how things like that change over the years
Proper old skool motors 💪new sub, great channel, keep it up lads 👍👌
I used to run about with a bag of tools in my boot in my sapphire cosworth and my 3 door, and a bottle of water and oil. Good times.
I have a stick! Ha
Awesome video.
You got to love a cossie.👍👍👍👍👍
Nice saphire cosied, my dad had a Granada 2.9i Ghia X and it was a PMS reg number too.

Beautiful car, that gearbox is on borrowed time, sound the bollocks👌
Funny enough the car is equipped with launch control and ain’t lag and I refused to use it in fear of blowing the arse out the box lol
@@onthelimiter6529 is that on the standard box then ?

Mark if you bare with us we might have something coming up with pulsar as john is going to try and become a dealer and putting one on his 1.8t mk2
You guys are funny as hell iv subbed 🤣
Thanks pal, appreciate the support! Plenty more lined up :-)
Had a couple escort turbos n a fiesta! Never could afford the leap to one of these fine specimens.....
Me too!
Beautiful car👌
Anyone who doesn't have a soft spot for a cossie needs a swift kick in the sack imho...
Completely agree! 👏
They are rot boxes, soft spot it all the rust soft alright statement 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@thecarzarethestarz1370 fair enough....thing is though your missing the point......
Good work lads keep it up
Thanks mate :-) we still need to meet up sometime. Need to see this e30 still

at 20:30. thats exactly what i sad......'f*****' hell............blistering.
Sick Cossie 🔥🔥
3.30 thought it was jaywick then i thought cossie cant be😂😂👌
Big up to da old school motors.
Beautiful machine lads 👍 thing sounds amazing! I’ve been in a couple of similar power cossie’s and it was terrifying 😁
That red sapphire is sick ill...”mad acceleration.”
Great video lads. I seemed to suffer with an advert on average every 1 minute so had to cancel watching but loved the cossie.
Love it! Had a 2wd Magenta Cossie, sold it after i got arrested twice in it. Apparently it was my fault and not the cars?
Never realised how much the Saph’s look like a FoxBody Mustang from the front
Iv just thought the exact same thing, never really noticed how American the front end looks until now. Weird how you look at cars differently as you get older.
That sounds amazing, one thing tho , that yellow under the hood 🤢 love a cossie 👌
We knew that was coming! Hahaha, the owner is desperate to change it. Just finding the time, he’s just got it on the road and wants to use it :-)

Nice one lads
Great video got to love a Cossie ,2 great cars there what power is the silver one 👍
Silver one is stage 3 so around the 330 marker. Goes well but nothing like the magenta one
AWESOME!
Tip! Bit of boot polish on gear stick gator
Absolute weapon 👌👏
Things savage pal
This happened with mine ,, took my spare wheel out put it back in again I some how had switch fuel pump off in boot. Switched back on and way to go 😄👍
laugh out loud...me too!! but that was in 1992ish...we had no internet to troubleshoot. Took me 2 hours to find that poxy button!!! Its a fuel cut off in case of a rear ender I believe.By throwing the spare in the boot..it triggered the tripswitch.
I remember the scenario all to well 🤣🤣🤣
..there used to be a black 2 door hatch here in New Zealand in the mid 90s ..it beat my friends 440 dodge charger in a street race ..extremely rare now
My pals got a twin turbo in Essex .
nice lookin car that
class car
I once drove a 4x4 2.0 turbo estate cosworth. Must have been 1994/95. In white.
I’ve never seen another .
I want that car!! ( With the dump valve, I'm from Essex!) How many tens of thousands would a bit of kit like that cost now days? 911 to a H reg Sierra? I totally get it. Back in the day I sold my 255BHP Escort Turbo for a 911. I loved the Porsche, but except top end my RS was MUCH quicker lol. P.S Just subscribed
What a Weapon
Mint video lads.whats the spec of the turbo and what size waste gate
That’s gonna be one for John to find out, I’ll get details and let you know. All I know is it’s a GTX30
Rather it standard for my liking 😎👍🏻
One similar to that was featured on wheeler dealers with edd china same colour
I remember that one, they converted it to 2wd.
*Chrome under a Cozzeh bonnet is like Gypsy Jewelry*
*Listen it is wharrit is*
Are u the real John fury ?
Niiiiiiiiiiice😉👍
Class fellas 👌🏼
🤣🤣🤣
Adam get them out in your cozzie.
Feel like I know that car.. my old RST was H676ERL I remember being at a show or something and it was there.
Do you have a website link for the pulsar turbochargers like on the magenta cosworth?
Great video .when's the GTti video coming out 😀
Its getting built now. We also have an ek9 coming and the rallye. Some old school hatches
The National dress of the once great Britain.
seeing how big the turbo is , that thing needs ages to spool up :( Seeing my cossie wil be at full boost at 3k rpm wit the standart big turbo
That's a weapon
“These guys have jokes, they have some kit about them.”

Viv Graham’s old motor
@@onthelimiter6529 yes mate. Still awesome condition
It would be great to see a vid on H35 ELE if it’s still in the north east
I want a 2 door with the big spoiler
My guess is it's near Hexham.....
Disturbing the peaceful countryside with an old Ford: absolutely splendid!
Nothing sounds better than a Cossie flying thru the country side, reminds me of the old rally days
