Well, my 7 started life as a Ford so could be called a Sierra 'rebody' All the suspension and transmission is from a single Sierra with a Focus ST170 up front.
This is how it used to look....

My First car was a Fiesta Mk2 1.4S
then I had quite a few Fiesta's all Mk2 then built a Turbo'd one.
All went abit quiet for awhile as I drove around in a Volvo 340 after I sold my Mk2 Turbo.
Which got me loving driving rear wheel drive then a brief spell in a VW polo then on to a 2.0 DOHC Sierra then after saving a few pennies came the 3 Door Cosworth on the 1st of December 2003 which I have owned and loved ever since.
Although my everyday car is a VW Bora at the moment.

I much prefer older cars. I'd quite like something along the lines of a V8 Pilot.
