Am I On crack?
By thinking the Saph cos is a really nice looking car? :S
Seems to get a slagging on here. Taxi? Why? I have NEVER seen a saph used as a taxi. Carina, yes, 405 yes, but Saph - nope.
It's long, sleek and has simple lines. Maybe it's because people are obsessed with the 3dr, which in reality, isa bit cumbersome looking. The saph still looks pefectly modern to me too. The Sierra was renowned for it's sliperryness when it came out - this shows now, as it's not far behind new cars in terms of it's aerodynamics.

As long as they are kept well.
as in, are kept shiny, and aint got the Horiffic original wheels on
(why did they rob them from an Xr3i???)
then saphs look cool
especially when they are being launched and the rear is all squat!

people literally spunk over BM's - and although i love BM's as cars, i don't think they are special looking at all. I agree with the low wide thing about the saph. IMO, to get better looking, u have to start going to coupe's, proper sports cars etc, which have lines for looks and not practicality.
Rhys - thing ur bang on about the band wagon thing.

When I bought my saff, I did so because it went very fast in a straight line compared to anything I'd driven up till then, nothing more.
It may look hard, or purposeful, mean or aggressive, but it is NOT a pretty car in any way, shape or form.
