I am selling my former car that I used to drive to work every day, and it has never been smoked in. The vehicle was purchased from the Ford dealership with 16000 km on it as it was used as a demo. It has driven once across Canada and once to Revelstoke BC, but the remainder of the time it simply drove me back and forth to work which was approximately 30km round trip each day. Since I have purchased my new car, my daughter as used it at least once a week to get back and forth to work. I am selling it at a reduced price from the normal going rate that I see as I know that the Air Compressor for the Air conditioner will need replacing as well as some other minor problems such as the missing antenna and a few small scratches and rust spots. As well it only has three of the four hub caps and the armrest requires a retaining bolt, finally where I used to set my heel when I had my foot on the gas pedal has worn through the floor mat and carpet.
Other that those issues it drives well, has never been in an accident and has regular servicing. The tires and shocks were replaced last year as well as work being done on the brakes. This year the problem I had with it was stalling due to a line developing a hole in it. This was repaired by Midas and the engine was given a tune-up. It has been washed and vacuumed out and my wife will be taking the carpet cleaner to the carpets and seats. If you are interested please feel free to contact me.

Cosworth double-feature is XCar's a drool-worthy look back
Wed, Jun 11 2014While American fans of Ford performance cars in the '80s and early '90s were loving the 5.0 Mustang, Taurus SHO and, for those who wanted to be a little different, the Merkur XR4Ti, British fans of the Blue Oval were getting their own unique take on speed. The Sierra RS Cosworth (which was similar but not identical to the aforementioned Merkur) and later Escort RS Cosworth were the stuff of dreams with huge wings, hood vents and big power for their time and class. XCar Films aims to find out whether it is little more than nostalgia that makes these classics famous or it really is their legitimate performance. Thanks to its Formula One and racing success, Cosworth was already a well-established performance name in the UK by the time it began selling tuned engines to Ford for the Sierra and Escort. The Sierra RS Cosworth hit the scene in 1986 with a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 204 horsepower and rear-wheel drive. Its huge wing at the back signaled it immediately as something special, and it proved to be a performance powerhouse on and off the track. When it was retired, Ford replaced it with the Escort RS Cosworth that used an upgraded version of the same engine with 217 hp, all-wheel drive and an even bigger rear wing to net yet more racing victories. XCar really gets into the spirit of the time, opening the video with the lo-fi grain of '80s and '90s TV, but to find out whether the Cossies stand up to modern scrutiny, you have to watch the video below. Stay tuned until the end to enjoy them at their best with some vintage motorsports footage. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Watch these videos of an NHRA racer's bodywork blowing off into a crowd
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Just a few months ago, fan safety at racetracks was a hot topic following the last-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series crash at Daytona that sent large pieces of racecars into the grandstands injuring 33 fans. Now, a freak incident at a National Hot Rod Association event resulted in a drag racer's bodywork flying into the crowd at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte over the weekend. The carbon-fiber body of Robert Hight's Ford Mustang funny car blew off toward the end of a run when his engine exploded, but fortunately, the two fans evaluated after the incident were later released without serious injury.
As you can see in the image above, the body flew high into the air before landing on a walkway in front of the grandstands, a bit of happenstance that likely gave most fans enough time and space to move out of the way. Scroll down to watch a couple of videos showing what happened, including one from a fan's perspective that also reveals what appears to be part of the body's metal bracing landing dangerously close to the crowd.
