I remember watching the RAC rally with my dear old Dad, stood in the woods watching Gwyndaf Evans and Malcom Wilson dancing one of these through Kilder Forrest, anti lag popping and bangin’. Class…

without doubt the best ford ever. i remember the day our local ford dealer got a radiant red one in the showroom, i twagged school to go and look at it. still have the photos of it. we also had an Escort Cossie cop car in our town too.

Absolute perfection. My love of these has not faded since they came out.😍

Not just any other 90's icon, such a blast down memory lane !! Still a head turner !!

For me the thing I actually loved about fast 90s cars when I was younger was 90s engineers didn't give a crap about linear power delivery just lag lag lag then punched in the back of the head with boost 😂

To get them motivated you need to give plenty of revs , your not really driving it unless your up around 4 1/2- 5k rpm and above .

Escort cosworth on Rondels making all the right sounds... truely legend car they take some beating, anything with Cosworth on the boot is dream car for me. Modest tune for this wakes them up nicely & keeps it reliable (sort of 😉). Top vid mate 😎😎✌✌👌👌👍👍

my dad had a white one when i was a kid and i was just in it all day everyday i loved it, i still have a picture of me in it when i was about 3 or 4 with huge sunglasses on sat in drivers seat making engine sounds

Im not sure if there is a car i yearn for more than an Escort Cossie. Insanely cool

Ford made many special editions of the Escort RS Cosworth. The best being the RS Cosworth Wolf Edition (300 made) that came with 300ps bhp.

I’ve always loved the sapphire cosworth as I’m a sucker for a saloon but the escort Cossie is a 90’s icon!

90s car porn right there. Best hot hatch ever

Fortunate enough to own one just like this , big turbo 360bhp best car ever gets respect everywhere , own a Ferrari too but this just gets next level respect , you really have to be in one to understand smiles all round .

I still want one, I remember seeing these for around 13k, but the insurance was 15k at the time.

No it's a toss up between escort Mexico and Sierra RS500 cosworth 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I remember one of these sitting in my local Ford dealership showroom, I was more a Sierra man but definitely went down there to check it out. I wasn't long passed my driving test at the time, this thing just looked the buisness. 👌

That engine bay looks amazing.

Remember being 14 when my uncle bought his in the same colour mallard green brand new in 1992 after owning 2 Sapphire cosworths before K820 kal on the reg I felt like royalty when he used to take me to school in it Turned as many heads then as it does now ...what a thing ❤ Inspired me to buy a Sapphire cosworth as can't afford one of these Great video becky keep up the good work

Was in the one that appeared in max power mag back in the day with the owner dressed like a teletubbie off the tv, car was superb, only critisism is the dash was more or less the same as my family's escort Harrier of same period bar a few more clocks etc. The boy who owned it tho was a wizards cuff of a human being

What an awesome looking/sounding/driving car! they don't make 'em like that anymore - but it's wrong to assume anyone who likes these would be in their 50s - I'm only 48!

Big turbo early cars are nicer to drive (yes I’m biased) but for an experience they just push more buttons. More lag yes but the T25 cars just don’t offer the same smiles per hour If that makes sense. Lovely car tho that one and I do have a ticket bought as I’d like a BT and ST escort 😀

Not actually an Escort as such but a modified Sierra Chassis with Escort Panels grafted on, still an awesome weapon and now very rare in either both standard form or tastefully modified.

Awesome machine and you’re right, back in the day, these were properly rapid!! Very cool.

That spoiler is the best thing about this car 🔥🔥

A friend of mines dad has a bone stock original cosworth rs in the cosworth blue. When I say original I mean everything! is original. it's used that little the tires are 20 yrs old

Ahhh Becky, I had one of these in my early 30’s - it was my dream car from being a kid at college. Have a look at my early videos to see it 😎 …… I will be buying tickets for this!!

80's to about 2000'ish. A golden, never to be repeated, era. Well, not for a good few decades until sanity returns.

It is actually a sierra cosworth with a escort body

In Reality they look a thousand percent better than they drive. Doesn’t stop me wanting one though

Absolute icon.

Right wheels and colour, it's lovely 👍

You need to try the corrado vr6!!!!

Takes be back to being in mine at 23 in early 2000's. Was my dream car

that old cortina engine has done well with a few valves + a turbo chucked at it.... [it was a 20yo design in '91]

So much fun to have but they are getting so freaking expensive in parts :( got 1 here in garage :) Moondust silver 😍😍

Bingo wings

No! My 2014 Shelby GT 500 is. But that is a nice car too! Thank-you!

0 my goodness, I just discovered you on Car Wow with Matt Watson, you were awesome driving your 911, then you got the taste of the modern one. So just to let you know I'm a big Ford Fan and drive a 2014 Ford Fiesta ST, on a stage two Cobb Tune MBPR exhaust and sticky Michelin Pilot Sport tires, I can so relate to this Escort, at 75 years young I love driving on three wheels. The Fiesta Flash.

I think QueenB needs to build a 90s icon🎉🎉🎉🎉

I got a reliable 400bhp out of my LUX, loved that car.

I lived in the W.Midlands back then and the police were told to stop every one of these they saw as 1/3 were nicked. Insurance quotes were laughable, wasn’t it Clarkson who got quoted £20K a year for a car that cost £21k new…. I was a big rally guy and the early Group A works cars with the side exit exhausts were very cool.

What a great car! 80's & 90's was best time be alive! Maybe it is just me, but I have a feeling that Becky is old soul🤔😊💯🔥💪

Looks amazing..... Escort cosworth looks good too.😊

Lovely...auralis blue is my fav...Ford's get under your skin..

Totally unbearable 🤦‍♂️

I saw that car today at the nec...are you talking at fast speed???😂😂

Haven't watched one of your vids for a while, sounds like you've been spending a lot of time with the Irish :)

I have just started watching and I have to agree with you. It is the best and most iconic Ford of all time and I can say that on good authority as I have been lucky enough to drive one on single track roads in Argyll in Scotland and then been driven in it at the fastest speed I have ever been in a car at well over twice the speed limit. Simply put it is just awesome. My Dad purchased the 1st Escort supplied to the North East of Scotland sold by a former Rally driver who took his sons and myself to the local Rally's and always chatted to the McRaes and Malcolm Wilson so I think fast Fords are in my blood. The closest I got was owning a 1.8 Si but nearly bought an RS2000 and was offered the Cosworth I drove but at the time I bought a Land Rover instead.

Excellent video, my number 1 favourite car. Thank you for sharing

Of all time? No. That would be a GT40 IMO. However, I love these Cossies.. I lusted after these for years. ❤️

do you have sweaty feet

I've had chance to be driven in a 500 hp fochessato sport escort cosworth (fochessato was a Tuner for rallye cross akd his cars were up to 700 hp for race. The 500 was a road car 😂😂😂). Tgis ride was epic 🤩🤩🤩

I remember being 8 years old seeing one of these brand new in a ford dealers window. Highbury ford....loved it and still do. Wanted my dad to sell his escort rs turbo for one. But he bought an E36 M3 instead 😒

This car! Grew up seeing these up and down Essex, legendary car. Fast Ford 4eva!

It's very nice but, I still prefer 86,87 Cosworth that's what I had for 8 years & I was offered the Escort rs & I turned it down 😊

honestly, im more likely to watch an escort cossie and e21 and shit like that rather than something brand new or some super car

The good old days becky awesome have a lot of memories one was a 400 plus bhp castle performance not a lot in these days but back then its was a ferrari slayer x

Gotta love a Cossie still one of my favourite cars but even back in the day they was slow my old banger Nissan pulsar Gti-R use to leave them standing

Greatest Fast Ford erm probably in Europe. I think American Fords like the GT40, Boss 429 Mustang, 2000 Cobra R , Boss 302 are above it. At Stop lights in 1969 and 1970 on Woodward Avenue it would not of coped. But this was the car of the 90s along with Dodge Viper F50 and F1

Ford has a history of producing great fast cars going all the way back to 1932 with the flathead V8 powered Model 18. To suggest that the rally centric Escort RS Cosworth is the best fast Ford of all time is quite frankly a travesty to Ford's history! Ford have produced enough fast cars, trucks, and SUVs over the years to satisfy all tastes. Some might say the Escort RS Cosworth is indeed the greatest for them, but others might opt for the 650hp 1967 Super Snake, others might go gaga for the SVT Lightning (get it? ;) ), others might prefer the exotic GT40, etc, etc, etc... This one very rally centric car is not to everyone's taste and Ford is so broad and phenomenal that no single car can be the greatest of fall time specially not one that's not Ford's most legendary, powerful, or valuable vehicle.

Great looking cars, but a mk4 xr3i soft top was alway the top of my wants list one of these was a close second

A little slow 🐌 now but good to have in the garage to look at and think its going up in price think ill have 9.99 on it and stick it in the garden if I win

Becky…yes I’m one of those “old men” who knew them when new…and whist not in the same performance level as many new cars now, it gave everything in an accessible way. A “1000 bhp” Ferrari is spectacular but most unusable…but in the 1990’s with less technology to catch you, fine, van and “protect” you, far less electronics to smother every thing..you had a better, more grin worthy drive. Cars now are better in some ways but lose a great deal in enjoyment. 🙂🙂🙂

Had one, similar spec except standard headlights, was previously owned by PJ Motorsport . Must admit l was disappointed, having owned a Sapphire Cosworth previously. Sold it and got an EVO 6.

I have a silver flake red one it's the one car I wouldint sell and has a standard tape deck radio

I remember seeing one of these, in the foreground of a local ford dealer in Middlesborough. All my mates were in awe and attracted to the standard power and performance figues and styling. I also used to go to rally cross at Croft circuit, Darlington and witnessed the mentally, ultra tuned versions in full flow, wheel spinning at 160mph and trying to compete with the likes of Will Gollop in his prime. Amazing looking cars with the whale tail spoiler and a testament to car culture......

3dr sierra cosworth is the ultimate cossy but the escorts the glamour queen , untill u experience a 500 plus hp cossy u wont fully understand what they are truly capable of and what they were built for , fords racing at the weekend in the btcc then selling weekdays was the gig , when the world was a better place the 80 s and 90 s of course 😅

In the early 90's, me and the lads were in the lake district having drinking fun around keswick, as you do. On our way back to the campsite, a brand new, police car escort cossie driving police officer, asked us if, We, were having a good time in the Lake district. A dream job surely......

Can almost smell the mix of petrol fumes and oil that come std with driving a cossy 😁😁

Not the best RS i would say the rs200 and rs 500 then the 2 wheel sapphire then the escort then the 4x4 sapphire IMHO But none of these can beat the absolute savagery of a mk2 or mk1 with a yb cossie Great video thanks

I saw a purple one flying about in Leeds/Bradford when I was a kid and the number plate I always remembered was "N23 COP" looked out this world when I saw these cars on the road.

It's got a power band over 4000rpm, it locks in, after all, it a Rally car..... 😅😊

My Neighbour had one when I was a kid they were Ford escort crazy

I remember putting a new shell on one of these when it was new, as it was accident damaged. In mallard green from memory, which was more of a blueish colour

It’s a classic car for sure, but the rs mk2 especially the 500 is the best off all time. The rs 500 was 35,000 to buy since it came out in 2010? At current date it’s like 100,000. Rs 500 is king hail

Phrase of the day: Remember to buy a car without any "FAFF" once you go older! 😄

Phrase of the day: Remember to buy a car without an "FAFF" once you go older! 😄

Drive a 2wd sapphire after driving an escort and you will know which is best . Escort looks good but you sit on it not in it , a shame , cheeRS

Bloody love a cossie 😍

Sierra 4x4 floor pans . 66 diff at back 33 at front. Great cars as gwyndaff Evans said I hope they never do away with them.

Great car the RS but you obviously have never driven s Barra powered XR6 Turbo Falcon...

Sierra Cossie Sapphire RS 2.8, didn't have a poster, also the RS2000❤😊

Yes i had the yellow Graham Goode racing Iconic Escort RS Cosworth on the wall with the Sierra RS 500 beside it just to droll at and dream of.

Yes, its going to become boring and the electric head isn't going to be like a petrolhead.....Going the same way as mainstream music.....

Not usually a massive Ford fan, but this is perfect 💙

All I'm thinking is back seat job ! Back in the day ..........car slxxs

Tail happy??? No love, that was the sierra 3 door cosworth, the one you’re in is an escort with 4 wheel drive. Come on treacle move to the passenger seat and let the bloke drive and you go and do some makeup or ironing….

I am an American 56 y/o and there's one of these in Canada for sale --- escort are good economic cars Ebay/unbuilt title

Mad to think your round my home town driving a cosworth

Seen one exactly the same as this here in Australia at an all ford day in Sydney. Owner said no one knows what it really is 😁

I remember when these were new and when some tuners got a hold of them, they were putting out 450+hp. There was even one I read had 550 out of that 4cyl. Crazy

I’m certain this belonged to an officer I once knew in the army many years back . I remember him being very well spoken and then pulling up in it.

My escort 95 GT same in ashgrey.broken gearbox.good car

The heritage the RS cars have is why they always have a sense of ocassion to pull out the garage for a blast.

Back in the '90s, these were too expensive to buy and insure for most people on a regular salary.

Some cars transcend wheels panels & pistons……this is one of them ! Hasn’t dated atall to my eyes ❤

Great cars which I loved when these came out. Makes me feel 23 again.

It was group b rallying. Get your facts right when talking about history, ask daddy to buy you the cossie
