I really like it and I do think it is a sleeper

Also its his car he can do what he wants and he definitely hasnt 'downgraded' or 'made it look shitter'

the guy lives just down the road from me and i think the main reason he has done what he has to the beast is that it makes it less apealing to the theiving scum that we hear about on here almost every week , it means most people dont know its a 6k+ cossie they think its a tidy 500 saff so noone trys to nick , i love the car and his 3 door is mint to

It could also work the other way. It might be more likely to have someone try to steal it. Kids after a joyride would probably rather attempt to steal a shitter Sierra rather than something tidy looking as it will appear easy to take. Same story for someone pissed up looking to steal something to drive home. You'd go for a dog that looks like an easy target.

The car is cool though and is much less likely to attract the more organised car thief with plans to strip it.

More like an LX actually as it has the red trim.
Really should have the pre 90 black slatted grille too for authenticity.
