Ok,
This car used to belong to my uncle and I first saw it when I was 11, It was 2 years old and he was buying it from someone. I went on the test drive with him and absolutely fell in love with the car. The sensation, the sound and the look. He bought it needless to say, used it for many years as a daily in the lake district where they are from. Unfortunately the years weren't kind to it. One day I got a phone call from him saying he was selling it so I found the cash and bought it. I then spent about 4 years restoring it fully from the ground up. Apparently it's quite rare as it's a Black 2wd which was a factory colour option.
There is a full resto thread here if anyone is interested Cosworth Restoration (LONG)
Anyway here is how she looks now

Awesome Cosworth man! Also love the rest of your fleet, infact I think you have too many cars to call it a fleet!!

Thank you all for your kind words, this is one of those cars to me that will hopefully never leave my ownership. I've put so much effort in to it and it's always been in the family.
