1986
Ford Sierra RS Cosworth
Ford's homologation special for Group A touring car racing used a Cosworth-developed YBB turbocharged engine producing 204 hp in the road car. The "Whale Tail" rear spoiler was fitted to reduce aerodynamic lift at the 250 km/h top speed. In period, it was the most stolen car in the UK due to its desirability.
