Lol I know Nathan, but they aint always cheap! ... My mum bought a brand new shell for her Austin mini Mayfair few years back, cost nearly 2 grand 
its already started to rust because of the dickhead she used to use to fix it all.
Sure there a few sierra specialists out there that do stock nos parts for them ?
Tbf I don't that clubman is even worth Ł50 lol.....

That is really annoying.And the Clubman is quite good tbf. The longer wheel base altered suspension geometry and from what I have heard makes it handle that wee bit better.
Update on that Sierra. I knocked on tonight, and had a half an hour long chat to the guy who owns it. He flatly refused to sell it at first, but then after a chat, he said he would let me know if he ever decides to sell up. It was an XR4X4 after all. With cossie bits, and it was full of crap inside. Not too rotten though.

Not abandon, just in storage for a loooong time. in theory abandon, laying in a garage for that long, with car cover tho and a DRY garage! Not that bad after that long time shows how to keep a car well preserved if you wan't too
How we found it when opening garage
pretty girl out of the shadow and out in daylight.
And first time moving in a long time

Found today whilst on bus route learning
Anyone know what the law is on claiming abandoned cars because I was told by a road worker nere by that the people that owned it are in prison
Also in the garden
Hard to see but there's a mountain bike with a chainsaw engine welded to it lol
And the corsa van looks in no bad condition tbh
Cherrs john

Guy at work kept on about his "old car" in the garage. He said its not seen the road since 1984 and comes out once a year for a run up on the drive.
So one afternoon popped up to have a look. 100% original 40k miles 1300gt
