Clarkson’s Car Years – Ford Escort RS Cosworth Buttertub’s
A short clip of Clarkson enjoying the Cosworth up in Yorkshire. Anyone know the name of the song? lol. I know it’s ‘Happy Mondays – Loose Fit’, but tracking down the right mix is turning out to be fun.
Video Rating: 4 / 5
Perfecto Mix
theres never going to be another car like it
Not really much of a fan of the new focus RS as it’s FWD and clearly low budget compared with the escort. The sierra RS500 cosworth and the escort cosworth are probably the 2 best RS fords that really will go down in history.
That was my favourite car of all when I was kid in the 90′s.
cozzay =0
@Mr80Sxman ow but they actually have…the focus rs .
Ok , it’s not this refined, handmade or so..but it’s a great build of a car in these days..and it will probably go in the historybooks as one of the last epic fords .
Although it’s true, the cosworth is a real drivers car..the rs ins’t really ..
ya ford u where on too a good thing!
av gorra cozzeh
Does Escort Cosworth RS have power steering?
I would to love to have one of those cars
The song is just Happy Mondays – Loose Fit, but for the tv they just edit the song and remove the vocal/loop parts of the break etc, so the vocals dont clash with the talking/voice overs. So i doubt you will find the instrumental version, unless there was one released on a B side.
have they fuck no jockie
i was talkin about proper lancias not the ones they sell today which are mostly just puntos in a fancy dress
cozzay!
cossies rule
@DualofChaos Ford isn’t english
@Mr80Sxman Audi Quattro is the reason. Cosworth has teamed up with Subaru with the CS400.
@coopersx19 How about the VAG? Or was i sleeping when they stopped making money?
COSSIES r the nuts.
@20Hyland09 Lancia ARE still in business and part of the Fiat group the only car company in the world making money. Next point please?
Yes, they make a lot of engines today. They make a lot of premium performance parts as well.
Does cosworth make any cars/engines today or recently? Someone please tell me I would love to know!
The song is the 12″ extended mix of loose fit, you can find it on itunes
i does not make 700bhp, thats ludicrous, how can it make that with engine mods only, u would not be able to read the power at the wheels (where bhp is from) without supporting driveline mods.
