I asked my wife to pick up a parcel shelf for me, and she said she called several places with no avail! Is this truly the case, or is she just telling me to doddle off??!!

 

it's true there aren't many left, seems to be early mondeos in their place

 

yep its all true...Sierra's of all types are now rare I found a 3dr cossie parcel shelf on ebay (hinged with first aid box) that had been listed wrongly...no speaker holes and in top top condition and mine for under £4

 

If it's hinged than it's a XR4 one, but still a goodun for under 4 quid!!

The Cossie is a one-piece but looks the same

 

There is a Cortina / Sierra breakers on the A17 Near Boston, Lincs. The phone number is 01205 460737 and you need to phone before you go. Might be worth a try.

 

hi try albert loom of derby still some sierras coming in hit an miss thought some good bits to behad>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

lol Loomes number should be kept in every car owners phone book if they live in a 20mile radius of the place

 

Went to my local scrappy today had 3 of them

went there as i needed a rear light bulb panel that goes into the rear lights

 

In Holland it's the same

Looks like the most sierra's are already in "heaven" .

The most Ford's on the scrapyard here are: Fiesta MK3, Escort MK5 (etc), Mondeo MK1 etc.

 

Had one guy once tell me that as soon as he gets a Sierra, he gets em crushed!! He says there is no sense keeping a Sierra in his yard, as their too old.

 

Mr.Ford your car is da bomb its is mad i like the vid please tell me what you done to the engine lol

 

i went down alberts sat not 1 sierra in so your right it is probably hit and miss

 

Scrap yard I use had quite a few but I havent noticed many more get added.

 

My cousin owns a scrap yard and although he still gets sierra's in they are really thin on the ground. The ones that he does get are usually totally wrecked!

with the average life expectancy of a car being 13 years its no surprise really!

try finding a mk3/4 escort in the scrappies these days, it used to be full of em!

 

i was phoning them all last week about getting some door strips and was told most of them give sierra's straight to the banger racing lads!!

 

when at scrapyard give them name and number get em to stick on oily notice board (side of titty calender) gives you a bit more of a chance of finding bits SIERRA PARTS WANTED MUST BE CHEAP works for me!!!! be humble these people are car killers

 

i brought a 2.9 twin turbo technics coversion off a 4x4 granny from alberts 60 quid for the lot now that was a bargin went back week later after doing some searching and found that car also had a uprated g/box so had that 2 15 quid cheers albert lol made me a nice quick car for peanuts

 

Thnx for the compliments!

In the vid it has +- 315bhp, now is +- 350Bhp

(bigger turbo, exhaust, engine rebuilt, Bosch 803 injectors, 3b. MAP sensor, etc full boost (peak) 2,0 Bar (29 Psi)

It's fun to drive

 

Most do get sent to the crusher these days, suppy and demand really, if non are on the road then its dead money sat in the yard, they won't sell anything off it! A local Scrap dealer in sheffield has 8 Sierra's in, piled on top of eash other in some way or another, with very little rust, all ready for heaven lol

 

Dont think we need to panic just yet.

There's 71 whole sierras for sale on ebay right now.

Heres a parcel shelf..

http://www.letsrecycle.com/equipment...jsp?story=4429

 

I bought a brand new one (from Ford old stock) for $70 US or about 33 quid.

I can't believe it. So this proves old Sierras are being crushed before even given the chance at the scrap yards!

 

Most of the sierras that was in the UK now lives in MALTA even those who where scrapped by insuareance as local uk parts dealers inport lot of them and convert a standard sapphire into a Cosworth!! Mine was the 1st replica made about 10yrs ago!!!

 

Mo, I have a shelf mate - i bought it from ebay to use for my speaker install but instead opted for a proper speaker shelf so this is surplus to requirements.

Its not an original cossie shelf tho but is a genuine ford sierra shelf - the color is a biscuit tan instead of grey. You could probably die it grey to get the same affect.

In very good condition.

Pm me if you want it.

Ta, matey, but I guess since I got the new one and that my Missus left the UK already, I'll pass, but many thanks of thinking of us, like!
