They really are outstanding to drive, mine really doesn't have the power to exploit the chassis but with 185bhp, a ZF dogleg box and uprated suspension they honestly are brilliant. Maybe not quite as sharp as an M3 or Sierra Cosworth but way more refined and smooth, and a shitload cheaper than either.

I saw a saphire cossie the other day, first one I've seen for years..never see them anymore

That's because all old Fords die of rust
![]() 190 Cosworths are great fun, mine is more relaxing than fun. With enough power you realise how good a chassis these have, every bit as good as an E30 with the exception of the steering, which is too slow and light.

Did Jonny bring his booster seat or did you lend him your Yellow Pages?

Merc looks badass mate.

So, after a bit of Forte injector cleaner, new leads, clean plugs and ICV, I have just achieved TWENTY FIVE MILES PER GALLON!!!

That's what I'm thinking. I'd need an auto pedal box and shifter from a 190 but there are plenty of breakers, and there are more autos than manuals around.
I should have bought an auto in retrospect.

Will do pal. If I could sort out somewhere to keep it would you be able to have a look for some beer tokens? Literally just to check the engine and box?

Oh f*ck shit bollox, I've just realised I don't have a bloody car and that's quite far away !

I thought I'd already commented on this, but I f*cking love this thing, old mercs keep popping up when I'm looking at potential next cars/second cars/project cars. So badass!
