hi folks ive just registed on here after being without a granada cosworth for 4 years, sold my last cosworth hatchbach 4 years ago to a guy on the isle of skye, and regreted it even since, been doing omega elites but they are the most troublesome cars ive ever had. BUTafter being on ebay the other day, i saw my cosworth up for sale in glasgow so bought it, i couldent resist it and it looks as good today as when i sold it, so i pick it up friday. great forum site and i hope i can be of assistance on granada cosworths to you lot. thanks rob.

Hello Rob, this site is for the 95-98 Scorpio, not the Granada (I take it it is a Granada you have?)

might well do it dave, cant think of any other car thats as good, although the omega elite has more bhp they dont shift as good, and i should know ive had 5 of them. the seats are not as good as well. and to many problems with rocker cover gaskets, sensors, etc. my old granada never let me down,
