Default is a saff 2wd cossie shell...

... the same as any normal saff? mine's just had its MOT and is looking pretty bad for rot underneath

thought i might aswell buy a basic but tidy sierra and transfer all the bits, unless anyone has a mint(ish) 2wd cossie shell they want to give away?

late ones will take the 4wd stuff, thats about the only difference.

but rememember a reshelled car into another one wont be a "real" rs and hence the RSOC will look down their noses at you and it wont be worth as much to sell

plus, how many mint 1.8 GLX's do you see?

i've already got a mint 'j' plate diesel saff in radiant red sat here... if only it wasn't my runaround

i'm not worried about resale value at all as i'll break it when i'm finished with it (if ever i am)!

Can I have one go in it so I can run a 12 just to show you how to launch it properly

On a more sensible note, stick it in the radiant red one mate, sell the cossy bumpers and keep it looking like a LX

I'll lend you the Osenworks DVD and you'll see my point why

Try James Merrett on here - he's breaking an F plate Sapph at the moment. I think he's a PF Gold Member
