NOT MMM im thinking of buying

[maestego]

its a good washing-machine motor,its good old pinto

[Captain Slow]

Cosworth is basically a Pinto anyway, but too much power for the autobox.

Never cared for the Sierra dash but that looks like a genuinely decent car you've got there Andy, and I wish you all the best with it!

You mean the AR you come back to again and again?

I take your point about the rattles tbh - I've a few I need to sort out.

Is a nice Sierra you have got there Andy, inside looks really smart and clean. After looking at your pics I sort of thought to myself should I have kept my identical G reg Ghia that I let go of last year as it had the same interior as yours, but I could really only keep the one Sierra because of coming back to Montego's and my K reg Azura won hands down. The one thing I did keep from my G reg Sierra was the pair of very rare headlamp glass protectors that it had, these are now on the Azura.
I hope you decide to keep this car for a bit longer than you have with your others!!!!

Cheers for the link, I have'nt seen or been to this event. I may consider going to this event, don't know if I'll bring my Sierra or not as I would have to get it MOT'd and probaly sort a few bits on it and get it serviced but it's still a long way off yet. Has to be worth going to though.

Yes ,andy,as sam says,you always come back to the trusty old M's!!

Still ,i do like the old sierra,just a shame rover didnt kit out the turbo with the same toys as the "ghia's"!!

As for the pinto,its a beut of an engine,as good as the o series,but being a ford ,its more tuneable,and parts are more ready available!!

Still its let down ,this one ,with a autobox ( but thats just what you need ,of course!!).... ... comfort,not speed!!

[maestego]

always looking for one more early 2l auto and if one comes up at the right price

[Guest]

Shame ,a mate of mine has a 42k mile sapphire,1.8 lx (cvh motor) in gold,with biege interior.....It is showroom condition,and he wants a grand plus,i think!!

Still,shame its the wrong colour,wrong motor,and in your case,a manual,not auto!!!
