Quick /o/ Redpill me on Cosworth And nifty Ford vehicles

Rally-bred godmachines.

shit british vehicles that fall apart when you push them hard
would not even get caught dead in those
at least get something cool like a v8 vitesse and not that ugly plastic rubbish

>British Kekland

>>16948722
>not "British Lelland"

Cheap and fast in their day.

Slow by todays standards. Stupidly overpriced because muh fast ford meme as well. Mostly driven by cunts who call them cozzys

For some strange reason, that cheap plastic look is part of the appeal. For me atleast.

Decent cars back in the day.

Can't compete with modern cars anymore but apparently you're not a car guy if you wouldn't pick an old cosworth over a newer ford.

Have you seen how much they are now?

The appeal was that they were cheap and fast. Now they are neither. A bog standard 320d would keep up with a standard one

I've wanted one ever since watching Getaway in Stockholm 2

>>16948799
>52k for a 200hp car

Wew lad and I thought R34 prices were stupid

>>16948686
I bet Jeremy pulled mad pussy in that

>>16948799
I meant cheap as in quality. Interior wise.
I'm not surprised there's a "muh car. Muh history" tax on it, as with any other car.

I don't think the demand for Escort Cosworths is solely due to their factory power output.

>>16948842
Much like the F&F mememobiles (Skylines and Supras), Cosworths are tuneable as fuck.

Cosworth is a good tuning house but it's too bad Ford baited them with heug $$ to use their shit hardware.
