Another small point to bear in mind is the mixing of parts from different manufacturers.

Imagine needing a wheel bearing from a Golf, brake pads from a Corsa and disc from a Sierra. Ordering parts would be a nightmare.

Life will be so much easier if all the rear end was from a <insert model> and all the front end was from a <insert other model>

I don't have a donor, my rear end is 4x4 cosworth and my front end is a real hodge podge (Sierra uprights, Hi-Spec 4 pot calipers, Focus ST170 discs) but all of it is ford, or ford replacements.

To be fair, Sierra hubs are not expensive, but if you are looking for a diffeent PCD, why not just re-drill sierra hubs to suit?
