Default White 2WD saph £2500 Cheap-NO OFFERS

I bought this car off here earlier this year and have done a bit of work to it but don't have the time to finish it or break it so I'd like to sell it on. Had this up for sale before but decided to persivere with it for another couple of weeks, i have now decided to sell the car. I'd like to be as honest as i can with the add as i detest time waters and liars when selling cars, the car is what it is, and if you don't like the price, don't offer me a grand less if you don't like getting insulted.

White RWD Sapphire Cosworth 88/89 on an F plate
91k miles
No tax/Mot
17 inch Fox Wheels
Stage 1
Mongoose exhaust
Koni suspension


I have replaced all the doors, bonnet is now a 4wd item, rear bumper, and bootlid. Car didn't run/start when i bought it but cured that reasonably quick. The interior was looking a bit rough so I've cleaned all that up and bought a totally mint drivers seat, so overall it looks like a nice car.Only faults that it has now are (for MOT):NSR Chassis rail needs welded up, new brake & fuel lines

Front bumper is bent out of shape and would need replaced, i have a replacement (in grey) that would come with the car.
Speedo cable needs fitted (comes with car)
Bump strips missing off one side of car (have a set to replace these)

This can be a good project for someone as I have all the bits needed to fix the car, just not the time unfortunately.For those of you who are interested, the car is located in ABERDEEN and my mobile number is 07821044622 but I'd prefer that you TEXT during working hours, i don't want loads of personal calls at work. I would like a CASH sale for this, unless it's a good PX true to the value of what I'm asking then I can't consider it, sorry
there is another post from before, please disregard that as I have now fitted a new rack and radiator pipe, I just wanted to start a new thread that wasn't full of cluttered and confusing replies

tbh for the price who cares if its on the moon or aberdeen. it's cheap as fuck. if you knew exactly how much effort rog has been put in you'd have a trailor hitched and be on route!

only reason for sale is so he can complete his long term award winning for non movement saff 4x4 which is rather tasty!!!!

Actually, this would even be a good buy for me in Canada if I could get it shipped. Price is stellar.

It runs and just needs some chassis welding. You could drive the piss out this until it went boom and have a lot of fun.

$3500 CDN and some guy will come to your house and drive it on to a really big boat.

Half the price of shipping cars to me is getting it across Canada. The other side of Canada is halfway to England! I always fancied buying a car, shipping it on the cheap then driving it the other 6120kms home. LOL.

Who here would drive THAT far for a cossie?

Add a grand in bumper and arches repair and possibly some chassis rail love and this is rolling pretty. Pics show this car to be in very bankable condition.

Someone buy this. If this car was local to me I'd be buying it, tarting it up and making 2 grand off it (I do my own work).

If im buying a car (regardless of cost) i want to see pics of everything if im going to be traveling a long way
Yeah pictures arent going to show you if the engine is fucked but its still nice to see,and lets be honest it takes a couple of minutes to take pictures its no big hassle so i dont see your problem

Ok, i just don't see what you can tell by a picture of the engine, if it's something specific like a strut top then that's fair enough, i wouldn't ask someone for a picture of the gearbox.
I do have a pic somewhere, i'll post it up.

Very good price for a useable Cosworth, looks very tidy for it.

Swaying towards another one, but got an Audi A4 2.8 project at the moment, i would defo look at this thou. Good luck.

Yes it would drive anywhere, i drove it to Aberdeen from Dundee without any issues. But it has no Tax or Mot and isn't insured so i wouldn't reccomend it, and TBH i couldn't be arsed with the hassle if the new owner got pulled in it, since it'd technically still be in my name till i sent the paperwork away., and I'd hate to see someone get banned for the sake of driving an illegal cheap sierra.
The more i look at it, the more i think i'll just keep it and sort it out 100%, the car isn't mint by any means, but with a few hours and a few £££ it'd be a good starting point/track car/run about.

Thanks for the tags, I think......
PM's replied, car has a viewing at the weekend, and I'm away to look at another shell if it doesn't go, so be quick if your interested.
If anyone wants pics of the seatbelts, crank sensor, or the ashtray let me know, I'm pretty accomodating when it comes to stuff like that.....
