Sierra RS COSWORTH Almost Done! FIRST DRIVE in 2yrs & Recaros Refitted to 4x4 Sapphire Restoration
Просмотров 4 тыс.21 день назад
THE PLAN! When I bought this Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth from Scotland, driving all of the way back to Cornwall, my plan was to carry out a modest and fairly swift restoration - I wanted a tidy example with a more standard look and nice, clean power. I intend to own this car for lots of years, meaning I could improve my Sierra over time… fair to say things have not gone to plan! In the last vid...

      As always, thank you for watching Daniel. Great to know you like the SportKA and I do agree, it sounded really quite throaty on the start up towards the end of the video! As for a StreetKA, well I do actually already own one, I’ve had it 5+ years and it’s looking a little sorry for itself currently. Mine is a Panther Black Winter Edition… perhaps I’ll bring it onto the Channel one day albeit the SportKA content never really does that well, not that it worries me too much as I just enjoy sharing my cars with whoever wants to watch. Stay well and look forward to hearing from you on the next. 👍

    • @cornishcarcollectors
      @cornishcarcollectors 18 дней назад

      Thanks for the comment. The exhaust has to go and will but I'll probably use the car for the summer and look to change it during the winter months. Brakes are indeed standard but are all new, and as for the turbo it is a Turbo Technics hybrid build which was done last year (you'll see I feature it in a previous video). I appreciate you watching, thanks.

      Thanks for the comment. The 0-60 time might not be mind-bending, but they drive effortlessly and feel quick... bloomin' good cars these Mondeos. 😎 Thanks for taking the time to watch and enjoy your Skoda VRS.

    Hello Andy Yes the light at the end of the tunnel is nearly in reach and the cossie looking good The bogging down issue could be an air flow sensor as these normally only play up when cold and would want the car to stall just a thought as i had the same problem on a Serria cosworth, in the end the air flow sensor and crank postion sensors were changed which rectified it. Anyway mate im so looking forward to the final video of the car complete CheeRS Nigel 🍺

      Thanks for the comment Nigel... I am nearly there! Thanks also for your thoughts on the bogging down on cold start issue, it is an annoying one. It's in next week for the tune to be tested and mechanicals so I am sure it'll be sorted - I'll let you know what's found. Thanks for sticking with the videos and following the restoration.

    I love the silver 4x4 Sapphire Cosworth it really is a good looking car. I own a flint grey 2wd which I am currently doing a rolling restoration on and trying to keep it as original as possible. It should be more or less finished this year hopefully.

      Thanks for the comment. Great to hear from a fellow Sierra owner and good luck with your restoration, it's well worth it... but you know that already. I appreciate you taking the time to watch my video. 👍

      @@cornishcarcollectors You’re welcome and I really enjoy your videos they are much appreciated. My dad had a 2wd Sierra Sapphire Cosworth in magenta back in 1989 which is what made me want one. His had 330 bhp which was a lot for 1989 and the car was fast. I have some great memories from those days.

    With the leather seats I used to have the passenger upright transferred over to the drivers side and use the leather out of the back of the drivers put into the bolster and the back replaced with a non leather , you’d end up with two perfect seats and a mint drivers seat

      Thanks for the comment and advice. I’ve actually done similar before with a Golf; swapped out the material from the seat back pocket to repair the bolster. I hope you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching.

    I went to prom in a magenta sapphire Cosworth two weeks ago. It was the best car I've ever been in. The Sapphire has always been my dream car, so being able to experience it was genuinely out of this world. What an awesome car you have, man!

    • @cornishcarcollectors

      Thanks for the comment and well done for choosing a Sapphire Cosworth to arrive at prom in, particularly in Magenta (my favourite colour). Thanks for watching the video, I appreciate it.

    Brilliant video. The Cossie looks great. Will be spot on after you’ve done the door cards etc. I almost bought a silver one before I found my flint grey one many years ago.

    Not only have you got yourself a wonderful cossie - you prevented one from being parted out and taken off the road. 🛣️
