Which is what i showed a picture of.

I dont think he was worried about if it was a mk1 or mk2, it just happened that he posted a picture of a mk2

Surely its just a mk2 sierra 3 door.

If it was a saph, it would have a saphire badge, say saphire on the logbook, or have a saph back end?

It has none of those things

that saph was converted iirc. there's a guy that did about 3 or 4 of em.

however i have heard of / seen a pic of (aaages ago mind) and original 2door sapphire

i assume that they never sold any tho, more of a "what if" by ford development.

you can deffo get 3door mk2s on the continent, but not RS models.

dont think you can get a 3door mk2 XR either, but i could be wrong

Your right i wasn't. We was talking how the mondeo took over the sierra and he said you can get a 3dr sierra but not a mondeo. And i said only in the cosworth. He told me he had seen a standard sierra in 3dr Hence we was unsure so posted up for proof.

Cheers ben.
