Quite fancy a sierra cosworth for a little play, preference the 4x4 sapphire.

 

I have had a couple of the older XR4i's but never the cossie, anyone had any experience with them ? :p

nice motors, my mate has a 340 bhp one and its fookin quick

nice quick motors, my mate is also selling his, 470bhp proven, lovely cars and about the same on reliability as a zed! both had our engines out twice in two years :D

nice...lovely....what !! :confused: awful cars

 

If you like sierras ( :slap: ) go for it

- not a cossie fan.

They have a cult following and sure, can be tuned to stratospheric levels.........

 

..........but at the end of the day it's still a Sierra ;)

 

I would not have one; then I would not have an Imprezza or Evo either. 4-door saloons, no matter how fast, do not do it for me. Except perhaps the latest M5. But then again it's a BMW :nono:

 

Richard :D

did they do a 4x4 cosworth - i thought the 4x4 was the 2.8i and the cosworth was the 2 litre turbo

That's in good condition.....

 

......but way too much money for an old Sierra ;)

 

Now a Mk1 RS2000 or a Mk1 3.1 litre Capri is a different matter - proper old School cool.....:cool:

Rs 2000 and 3.0 capri,drool!!! :cool: i love em.Always wanted a black mk2 rs custom but was too young at the time to afford insurance.

was some of the best fun i had in my 4x4 sapph cossie it was crazy........

 

you have to be a proper munson to lose it in one of them

I like them but most are knackered and/or go for silly money.

Anyone know the difference between the red and green cam covers on them?

green is unleaded fuel, red is leaded

I love the Manta and 240z as well. I thought the same as you about the Capri but as there are almost none left I have to admit I kind of like them now........

 

......but only the Mk1 version - although the last "280 Brooklands" has grown on me a bit :nono:

 

After "Life on Mars" (and seeing the actual car at the Classic Motor Show) I've started to like the Mk3 Cortina - I'd never buy one though :rofl:

 

Richard :D

green is unleaded fuel, red is leaded

 

beat me to it........I had a 4x4 turbo taxi and loved it, standard apart from exhaust and filter but was still quite quick, would have another one anyday.

As someone has already stated, it is a Sierra which is Spanish for 'rust'. It a shame because the 4x4 Cosworth is a superb drive, and even the 2.9 engined standard 4x4 model was cracking, but you just don't see many around now.

green is unleaded fuel, red is leaded

 

What about the blue cover ones ?

What about the blue cover ones ?

 

Diesel ? :rofl:

solar power? lol

Hydro power?

ive had one mate cracking cars but unless its specced up your just sat in a sierra they need frequent oil changes too and mine went through tyres like there was no tommorow

Totally agree, although I do have a real thing for the Lotus Carlton. :)
