Comic Book Price Guide returns for its 52nd annual edition. From

Ford's legendary Sierra and Escort RS Cosworths conquered
worldwide motorsport, while changing the face of high-performance
road cars forever. With turbocharged two-litre engines producing
over 200bhp, these four-seater everyday saloons could keep pace
with supercars - and their 500bhp-plus circuit-racing counterparts
overwhelmed everything in sight. Even now, Sierra and Escort RS
Cosworths are in touch with modern machinery, making them as
desirable to keen drivers as they are to classic collectors. The
RS500 in particular is a rare beast, commanding prices normally
befitting upmarket brands. Sadly, many Cosworths were stolen,
abused, crashed, copied, neglected, and modified, which makes
buying one today a task that's fraught with risk. To help the
would-be RS Cosworth owner, this quick-reference guide acts as a
handy pocket-sized companion during the purchasing process. It aims
to help buyers select the best car, pay the right price, and avoid
the potential pitfalls. Written by a motoring journalist and
long-term Cosworth enthusiast, this one-stop package of great
advice includes at-a-glance tips, illustrated in-depth inspection
guidance, specifications, notes on modifications, real-world cost
considerations, and even checks to help spot a fake.
