suggest you add actual pictures to this thread rather than asking people to email especially when asking for such a price tagged vehicle

As it looks to me, a 5 door hatch, with a cage, bucket seats and a 24v lump, along with some stickers and a body kit.

equaling a £2K sierra tops,

but then " prepared but never finished by Top Boss Performance Tuning " so knock another £250 off

Shit me £8500!
My p100 has a 24v in it, refurbished xr4x4 box with doner sapphire 4x4cos running gear thats all been powder coated, refurbished diffs, new cam chain, new clutch and tires, MINT cos interior and dash, heated windscreen, electric mirrors windows and what not and i reckon i would struggle to get £3000 for it :/

Sierra GTs are a rare bit of kit but i hate to say times have changed, its not 2002 anymore and i think that car would be worth more if it were totally standard, the body kit and 'move over' written on the front spoil it a little for me.

hate to be a cunt as the car looks like its had a lot of hours put into it and may well be mint!

It's good 2wd saph money £8500. Or mk1 frs. Just my opinion but I know what I'd buy first. Still looks like its had time and money on it tho.

Unless it has a very big spec boa and running gear then it's only going to be worth £2k tops!

A lot of it is unclear as its no secret that me and TBPT parted company on bad terms so some of the vital stats are unclear to me, but a lot of answers lie with Fitz at TBPT.

What I'll do now is try to put a list tgether of what's on it as it stands, and maybe a bit of history.


(Paperworks all stashed away so its from memory)
Cheers
Regardless its not going to be enough to warrant the pricetag

That name Fitz don't go down too well on this site.
so im sorry to say unless its running 300+ in N/A form and is all correct
it really still is'nt worth the asking price.
For that money you could build you own spec one with turbo's etc.

Sorry this is just my opinion and for 8.5k i'd buy a cossie anyday and it would be a well specced one for that.

If you dont mind me asking whats the deal with Fitz?
I met him a while back and thought, though he could chat through his arse he wasnt all that bad. Never did business with him though and noted he had a pretty massive line of customers waiting on him.

Sadly with projects like this,and the fact its a bit of an acquired taste I think your best bet at achieving anywhere near £7k is sadly to break it up into bits as then your appealing to the whole ford/kit at scene etc.
Just IMO and good luck with whatever you do.

This is definetley a case of the car being worth a lot more to you, than it is to anyone else.

And just to let you know in the title it says "GUF stream" not "GULF stream".

Just spotted it earlier!!!!

I'm sure someone will buy it but for anything heavily modified it can be hard to find the right person.

So........ Is it twin supercharged??? In your spec it says twin BMW superchargers? If so then some pics from under the bonnet may help a little more with the sale.

All the best any how

Without sounding harsh mate, with the cars you can buy nowadays with little money, you may struggle to make half the asking price.

So.... Is the 2.9 24v motor that's in it now producing 300bhp? If so what's the spec? is it turbo'd and do you have a engine dyno or RR printout?

It might be worth just sticking this on ebay. It will find it's price. Would have made good money in 1997.
Does it even run?

Jesus i couldn't sell my saph cossie for 5k with a engine that cost £5300 to build.

I like the look of it from the one pic looks lairy, but does not command a 7k price tag.
