FORD ESCORT COSWORTH DEEP CLEAN – Unmodified Barn Find Brought Back to Life | Top Gear Clean Team

From a very young age, Aaron has loved fast Fords and reckons he’s owned 50 or 60 throughout his life. He already has two Escort Cosworths but both are modified, so when he heard there was a rare unmodified 1996 Escort Cosworth for sale he jumped at the chance. He bought the car unseen only to realise that it had been sitting in a barn for 11 years. Years of dust and dirt have left Aaron wondering what colour it is and whether it can be salvaged. Sounds like a job for the Top Gear Clean Team… Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR: Want to watch a bit of Top Gear on the internet?
