Sierra 3 dr with 3.0 tuned Essex V6 - any buying advice?
 

hi guys

been a while since ive been on, been out of the car scene a while now, House & baby taking all my time up.

still have my RST locked up away not being used :( not been used in over 4 years now! going to get it out and sorted this summer though

also still own my RS2k track car, but thinking of selling this now (since easytrack has gone into administration and I have lost my bookings!!

looking at a Sierra 3 dr with a tuned Essex v6 in. always wanted a 3 dr, but with the way the cossie prices are going, not sure ill ever be able to afford one. so thinking may look at this one.

can anyone give me any advice on the 3dr shell and also the Essex engine?

cheers guys

Is this the silver one on egay?

yeh that's the one

doesn't matter now though, just rang the guy, he wants £4800 for it, over my budget. :(

heavy old engine the essex as I yanked mine out of the capri in favour of the lighter v8

Ha. Exactly what I did to mine 20 odd years ago. Took out the weight and put in more power. I often wonder what happened to UHP 984R? A 3.0 ghia, my second 3.0 Capri.
