1993 Sierra Estate, Car is solid with no signs of rot ( both on the body or the underside )surprising for a car of this year. The car is based on a sierra 2.0 GT estate, and has not been altered to look any different ( Street sleeper ).
The only changes to the look of the car are the set of 15" cosworth alloys with good tyres and the stainless 3" exhaust. The car has been fitted with a really strong engine which was rebuilt fully a mere 5K miles ago. The car was also fitted with a stage 3 hybrid T3 turbo. It is running a stage 1 tune, the engine also has a full bailey breather fast road kit and a bailey dump valve.
The car has also been fitted with the cosworth 2wd 7.5" rear diff and the T5 gearbox both of which are good. Also has the cosworth brakes under each wheel so stops well for the power. If you are after a proper street sleeper ( even has a tow bar ) in really solid condition call Alex on 07967454104. Or Pm me and I will on pass the details.

The car is for sale at £2995 ono.

1) No it's not a waste of a good engine. It's a Sierra, the very car that engine was developed for.

2) If you don't mean that you actually leak sleepers out of your bottom hole or similar, and that you do in fact like them, then you are completely contradicting yourself Mr. .Com, as that is a fine example of one.

Rant over, apologies for any offence.

Incidentally, Jimbo, why could that not have turned up a year or so ago when I needed it to?

Sodding typical!

I can see that, but it'd be more fun it looked a bit better i.e. in a 3dr

by that theory, putting a v6 in a corsa is a waste of a god engine

or putting a VAG 1.8t in a polo/mk2 golf is a waste of a good engine

Nope, not really a sierra estate is one of the ugliest, boatish, shoot cars ever imo

I'm not saying a nova or corsa are good at dealing with a big engine etc but they can look better than that

Yes I understand the term sleeper aswell but I'd never own that sierra regardless of what engine was in it....i'd have a go but not drive it about

maybe the owner needed something big enough to fit a wardrobe in and still wanted it to be quick, happened to have a cossie lump laying about, so decided to get a sierra estate as they'd go together easily

or maybe he wanted people to think "thats ugly, must be slow"
