That's the nicest car you've had outside your house to date Mark..... Only joking of course.

You kept that one quiet, surprised you haven't had your hand snapped off yet. I may have it if it doesn't go quick....

I thought it would go pretty quick but no interest as yet

Being that sierras are becoming very scarce now i thought it would be snapped up straight away.

It took me ages to find mine

If it doesn't go I'm sure we can come to some sort of arrangement if you want it

If you don't want it i will just take the diff and gearbox as spares for mine and weigh the rest in! which would be a shame, i would like to see it turn into another roadster

New toy ???


Shame it's not MOT'd, could have got it over here and then used the good sierra bits on the XR4x4 and a few bits on the Roadster and flogged the rest.

Oooo, the 2.5 Straight 6 is a fantastic sounding engine.

I'd be tempted Mark if I had somewhere to strip it. I already have my donor parts, but it's a pinto engine and would prefer a cvh (to make the necessary swap easier post IVA)
I'll have a think about it, but if you decide to sell just the engine I'd probably be interested.

If nobody wants the full car in the next week im just keeping gearbox and diff so you can have the engine at a very good price
