Someone in the HRC (KickerRam, im looking in your direction) but cant remember exactly who wanted me to keep an eye out for the Cosworth Escort while over here. Well I finally spotted the fabled beast on the M25. Man those things are ugly

Anyway least I know what im looking for. Ill keep my eyes peeled.

Considering that is their mother country, I would think they would be fairly common over there...

I just recently saw (and was unable to verify) a cosworth Focus in Quakertown, PA... i am still trying to look into this but did they make one?

Yes they did make a Cosworth Focus. The one you saw is probably a fake. It was never imported to the states, but I can say it is a NASTY little beast. It's what the WRC Rally car is based on I believe. AWD, Turbo, Huge power. All the body mods can be had in the US, so it isn't hard to make a "copy" from a visual standpoint, but if that one Has All Wheel Drive, it's the real deal. I actually had a Focus Hatch years ago(hard for me to openly admit), that was a total POS, but I did have it looking like the WRC car. I had the Real WRC body kit imported from England, right down to the Roof Scoop and adjustible Carbon Fiber Wing.
