as for buying a copy,

look at the car very close and check to see if they have used genuine spoilers and bumper ect,

as with the front bumper and gen splitters with both gen rear spoilers you are looking at about £1500 just for theses parts,

so if its cheap enough as a copy and has good bits on there you can not go far wrong,


the new car was a lucky find as was not advertised, i found out it was for sale by talking to a chap at autosports, who was looking at my labatts car,

i was not even looking to buy another sierra, i was going to buy a mondeo or fietsa,

i looked at two mondeo super tourers and they looked to much work to keep them racing, so i was going to get a fiesta race car, i even looked at a couple,

but this one was such a good deal and with big spares package, that i could not turn it down,

the bonus is now i have traced its history and found it to a special car,

the guy who owned it did not know anything about race sierra and did not even know rouse built it,

needless to say i looked at the car and shook my head and then made him an offer,

i would say it was about 10k cheaper than he could have got for it if he addvertised it,
