I can’t really even call this a modern classic anymore, this is now a straight up classic and a stunning one at that.

I was stunned to see this beautifully restored, genuine Escort Cosworth one day while out on a job, I couldn’t not stand in awe while I photographed as much as I could get away with.

After learning that, today, these are worth up to £80,000, I couldn’t understand why more people weren’t amazed by its very presence, none the less, it didn’t stop me from falling completely in love with it.

The interior was immaculate, from its 88,000 mile odometer reading all the way to the centre mounted boost gauge and that known around the world ‘Cosworth’ branding up on the dashboard – this is a serious car enthusiast car.
