You might think that there’d be little new to see on the Cosworth scene each year, after all they’ve not made any new ones for 25 years and the values of them are soo high now you’d forgive the owners for not wanting to make any modifications. Development of new mods must have ground to a halt, given the limited market and dwindling numbers.

You wouldn’t be entirely correct though, as despite the reappearance of several cars we’ve seen before, there were some new faces. Either people aren’t overly protective about making changes, or perhaps these are cars that have been restored and it’s economically more viable to rebuild with aftermarket and tuned parts than it is to track down overpriced OEM items.

There’s definitely more scope for visual difference with the Escort, due to the availability of the WRC bumpers, wings, wing and twin headlights. The 3 doors all tend too look similar in street form, although there’s a strong case to say that nothing should be changed that much as they’re close to perfect in standard form!
