Does anyone know what engine is in this car? I was out in one on saturday (passenger only). It achieved 60mph in first gear (it's a 3 speed auto I think), and acceleration... it felt like I was in a jet plane or something!
I think it has a 2.9 V6 engine?
I personally never know you could buy a Cossie with an auto box!

210bhp out of a 2.9 V6?
The Vectra GSi is 190-odd bhp and that's only a 2.5 V6 innit?

the GSi engine is a more tunned engine. ford could probably extract more hp from that engine but at what cost. mpg, emisions, price increase, insurance increase. could the car handle the power etc etc

The Cossie is a barge!
I would rather have a Sierra or Escort Cossie personally, but each to their own I suppose...

I remember chatting to the bird who's bloke has that Scorpio Cossie, she said 'Andy's just bought a Cossie tonight!'
I was like wicked, which one? Sierra? Escort?
She said "No, Granada Scorpio Cossie!"
