This is a detailed and colourful examination of all the fastest Sierras and Escort production models made by combining Cosworth power with Ford production engineering. The book relates their commercial and competition successes worldwide, also introducing the men behind the machines. Tells the full story, from the original 1986 Sierra RS Cosworth (first to carry the Northampton engineering company's logo) through to the 1993 Mondeo's time in the 2-litre Touring Car Formula season. It also covers the Escort Cosworth victory in the 1994 Monte Carlo Rally. Reports on the unbeatable Ford Cosworth performances between 1987 and 1990 in the national rally championships of Britain (twice), Spain (twice), France and Belgium, plus race wins from Britain to the Antipodes, and endurance victories in 24-hour races at Spa, Nurburgring and Snetterton are also included.
