    That is siiick!! 🔥🔥🔥The car is so clean and pristine, it looks stunning! Love the newest addition. Such a staple in the 90s, you can tell why people loved them 🔥 Would love to see your plans with this car! If you get an Integrale, Raj's garage will be like no other 😎

    A legend in the car world. A set of 18" Cossie reps will look the absolute business against the Auralis blue. It already looks to have aftermarket suspension so you're onto a winner with just the wheels. And Morette headlights would finish it off imo.

    On the later small turbo version Ford were not quite so generous with the underseal as they were on the early big turbo cars so the later ones are more susceptible to the dreaded tin worm 😢 Take a look at a product called Lanoguard that is a spray on underside sealer…… the beauty of it is that it is temporary in that it can be removed using citrus degreaser. So give the full underside a generous coating and use the car in all weathers and even salty conditions with no fear of corrosion 😎. The product is based on an extract from sheep’s wool called Lanolin. The reason you’ve never seen a rusty sheep is because this stuff works 😎🤩👍😛

  • @danieldevlin8760
    @danieldevlin8760 Год назад +1

    That is a stunner Raj, I'd say it definitely needs the 18" reps, they would look spot on, I'd say its already lowered, you can't go mad low on the 4x4 cossy because of the drive shafts start to pull out the diffs and that's a B&M quick shifter in the car by the looks of the gear knob common upgrade for the cossy. I love the car it is proper minter, definitely need to add a 3dr cossy to the collection and a saff😉🤣

  • @oemhammers
    @oemhammers Год назад

    Absolute beauty. I think a car of this calibre, being this low mileage and this original, has to be kept this way.
    However from a promotion pov I completely understand, and at the end of the day you have to do what needs to be done to enjoy the car yourself. 👌
    Awesome vid Raj and an absolute motor.

  • @christopherdawes4414
    @christopherdawes4414 Год назад +2

    Great choice, and well done on securing such a great example. On the wheels go for identical in 18" (summer) and keep the 16" for the winter tires. On the Lancia, another great choice, but you then need to for some Audi's. Quattro and RS2 would be strong candidates. An S2 would also be a great car to secure from the era. Great episode, and its obvious you are very happy with your choice!

    • @CarAudioSecurityUK
      @CarAudioSecurityUK  Год назад

      Thanks.. 18” replicas would be a great shout for the summer months. Would love to add an Audi Quattro to the collection at some point 👍🏽

    Black Art Design Coilovers will allow you to set your ride height to your exact taste and as mentioned in an earlier reply the modified adjustable rear beam as originally conceived by the late great Ahmed Bayjoo Is a must do to bring the handling up to modern standards. Supreme Car Services in Peterborough can do that for you as they are the absolute Mecca for all things in relation to Cosworth modifications 😎👍

    @tonywheelybarrow Год назад +1

    Can’t go wrong with 18 in standard replicas, or 18in compomotives. You don’t wanna lower it judging by the front lip clearance at 14:33 reversing in 😮

      I agree with OP, even if reversible leave this beauty unmolested, it’s rarer than rocking horse 💩 and you know it’ll fetch more in the long run. The colour is rare too. Anyways, your fleet is mental.

      If this car ends up on air ride I shall unsubscribe from the channel 😢 Definitely modify it but modify it correctly and sympathetically to what it is and there’s nothing wrong with that……the whole raison d’etre to the Cosworth was to make it your own and to realise its full potential 🤩

    • @CarAudioSecurityUK

      The 'dent' is purely where the locking screw holds the spoiler in place. May need some adjusting 👍🏼

    If the four piece front splitter set is genuine Ford original then I would swap it out for a carbon fibre replica that looks great and doesn’t go all wibbly wobbly and rippled like the Ford oem bits which you should lock up for safe keeping as you’ll waste half of your life looking for a replacement if it gets damaged !

    To be honest it looks a bit lowered already 🤔 My first one of these was a standard late ‘96 small turbo car and it looked like it was on stilts compared to yours ! Oh, and if you drive it properly you will warp the front discs in no time so budget for some AP brakes but choose your wheels first as some of the bigger AP brake rotors will be too big for some of the wheel options available 👌

    • @CarAudioSecurityUK
      @CarAudioSecurityUK  Год назад +1

      Yes, we can confirm since filming this episode that the car has been previously lowered. Thanks for the advice on the brake upgrades 👍🏼

      @julianwebb8712 Год назад +1

      @@CarAudioSecurityUK Glad to share knowledge accumulated over the years…..when it comes to wheel choice the 18” Rondell is a popular choice as they look good but be aware that the reason they are hard to find now is because they were made of chocolate and many were destroyed by our fabulous roads 😂 The design of the mould was bought out by a company called Engell or Engells or Engels, I can’t exactly remember now but the made a stronger version but only a low production volume so again, hard to find 🥴

    In a previous video, you explained that you were looking for an Escort Cosworth, but that you were not willing to pay the figures that are asked for it today. An Escort with 16,000 miles on the clock must have cost you over £50,000. Anything over £25,000 is nonsense.
