3dr,its the better looker and more sought after as said above,but if you can only buy a half decent 3 dr i would go for the well specced saff as you will get more go for your ŁŁŁŁŁ

i will second that
its like asking do you want a big nob or wee nob to go get girls withthe guys with sapphire's all say sapphires
a sapphire will not go up in price as much as a 3 door although they will go up slowly an escos will hold its value or go upand i have had all the cosworth models sapphire 2wd,4x4,3 door, escos st and now bt lets put it this way i would have another 3 door before i had an sapphire but thats my oppinionnot being a dick to all the sapphire owners as i said i have owned and currently drive a 4x4 sapphire cosworth but i would rather drive (sold now 
)my 3 door but i still love sapphire's as its still a cossie

3 door if your not using it much. I think they look better.
Saph if your using it frequently. Just couldnt see myself nipping into the town and leaving a 3 door in the car park, though i could leave a saph. A 3 door would last about 5 mins before being nicked.

Even though I have anice saff I would go 3-door.
The only reason I dont have one is it's too hard to find a mint, legit, original, low milage example.
If you can, go for it.
They will never de-value and will always sell.

sapph & 3dr
I broke my sapph to build a 3dr, wanted one for years and in the best colour moonstone. Was the best move i ever made, they look awsome and have a presence like no other cosworth. Might get a few disagreements with that last coment!
sideways all the way!

agree with the 3 dr,but i wouldnt sell my saff,im more of a fan of its subtle looks and you cant beat a pic of a squatting saff,or a sideways 3dr,just depends which you like the look of more,3dr will always get attention and sometimes the wrong sort,a lot of people not clued up on cossies dont know a saff when they see 1.

Personally I'd rather have the low-key approach of the Sapphire rather than the 3-door.
I like the fact that people don't always id the 4-door as a Cosworth - my neighbour did ask why I had a cosworth badge on my Sierra! Everyone knows what the 3-door is.
As standard the 4-door is less 'nervous' on bumpy roads as well
Seems to be more choice if you need second-hand bits as you can plunder the reserves of 4wd versions that were made for stuff like doors and trim etc
