1996 Escort RS Cosworth

Hi from the UK. This is my Escort cossie. Its totally factory standard looks
wise but the angine has been tweaked slightly and produces 370bhp
Was wondering how many escort cosworths there are in the States. Does anybody know of any.
Cool site by the way.
Cheers all

Re: 1996 Escort RS Cosworth

Hello RsCoss Jim.

Im in Oz mate. We have a few RS Cosworth escorts over here. I owned a RS Cossie Saphire, had to sell when I had my boy. I would like another one, maby next year if all goes well. The Escort cosworth is awsome! Id love one of them, there a bit pricey over here though. Yours does look very stealth/sleeper. I like it, good work.

Enjoy!

Brett

Re: 1996 Escort RS Cosworth

I know of one in northwestern Washington state all done up in Elf livery. Lookswise, that rear package shelf of a wing really doesn't do a thing for me. Otherwise, pretty cool.
