Default went to see 2 dumped sierra cosworths last night

several weeks a go a guy at work was in my office and had seen all my car pics on my wall, he mentioned that in the village where his dad lives a guy has 2 of them sierra cosworths dumped on his drive he said they had been there for "years".. I looked on google map and sure enough could see them one moonstone and one in white.. I thought nothing more about until last night when I was actually a mile from the village so I drove on to see if I could find them...

And sure enough dumped on a drive is 2 sierras in moonstone and white they havent moved in ages by the looks of it and the white one looked really rotten...

Now the catch......













they were XR4x4's!!!!!!

was a bit gutted!

ones an early one in moonstone and the other a late one in white!!
