I have just seen the Reyland Cossie in Kings Heath. WOW!! he stopped at the traffic lights, then suddenly just blew away, the sound is absolutely amazing!!! and he was gone within a matter of seconds, o and he left big chunky tyre marks:d

That is one amazing car I have stood next to the rear wing as he revved it to 7,000 rpm then side stepped the clutch It launches so hard

 

Yup it has just come out of martins Workshop after bein in ther efor 6 months

It ws completly stripped and rebuilt so it os now like a brabnd new car

The engine is supposed to pushing over 500 bhp Cant wiat to have a go in it in sept at the ring

The car is part owned by lee manning and dan renton (redline editor)

The car has cost em in excess of £20,000 to get it to what it is now

 

it certainly was a sight and sound i wont forget quickly, the pace at which it went was crazy, i had heard the thing so i turned around, then it stopped at the traffic lights near me (was walking btw) and next thing I know he was gone in a shot, sounds better than rally cars, and possibly louder too. Has he got a new gearbox on, like the rally style? because he seemed to have an extremely quick gear change which i have only seen on race cars

You mean the escort yeah? that is owned by Martin Hadland (of Reyland) in Birmingham and is now pushing over 620 bhp The cossie Gossy mentioned is a 3 door sierra.

Oh and yes the gearbox is something special You only need the clutch to pull away then after that you just change gear

 

620bhp???!?!??! no wonder the thing disappeared out of sight in a matter of seconds

 

right click, save as to see the car launch when it had 520bhp I am sure it's 627bhp now

 

read here!!! it hit 194 mph

 

how quick was that !!
