Your dad has great taste smile

Sierra has had a fair bit spent on it yes... but a 996 Turbo tuned by DMS is hardly a cheap bit of kit!

I like them both in different ways I guess.
Yea I suppose the 996 is a much more sorted car from the off! He has had track suspension and bigger brakes on it.(porsche 8pots) He uses it for track and takes it to tyresmoke meets more than anything lol. Loves the rs500 too but he puts about 1500miles a year on it and thats about it. Few others toys too wink

He only chose that one so the 9 looked like an 0 I think, long story behind the reason for the plate though lol, also I think he's putting the porsche badge back on as the car has just had a new rear deck and spoiler.

OMG THATS THE PRETTIEST COSSIE IVE EVER SEEN

making me so jealous, i had a sapphire cossie black full spec lowered 70mm, beautiful i know, but cause of my minimilist tyres, i got alot of punchures, so obviously when i brought her into garage i was unable to get a trolley jack under let alone on a ramp,

so it actually took 3 guys i work with to lift each side at a time LOL... NOT LOL FOR THEM BUT.

How the F did that happen? Hope you're better from it!
On the Gumball, overtaking a porsche 911 that was overtaking a queue of cars at about 140mph, rear left went light and he spun off the road and rolled several times on the Gumball. Driver walked away.....

Yes, its the same car in the Compomotive Catalouge. They used this picture.



This picture was in a previous Compo Catalouge as well


That sierra looks absolutely fantastic, and the interior is a work of art!

Never realised that you were one of the pair from the Escort Cossie in the 2004 Gumball. I still love watching the extreme episodes of that rally (except for the crash of course!). Never knew you broke your back in the crash though - glad you recovered ok.

Looks great Lee. Really like it!

Had a quick nosey over it when i was at Time Attack Silverstone, I was in the same pit garage as it with the Yellow and Orange RC Developments Evos. Noticed Renton giving it some TLC wink

You taking it out to the Ring in May?

Sure is...

Shame Zymol never even looked at it! let alone cleaned it!

Its for sale as well now... looking for around £33k. Alot for a Sierra... but its worth more it bits and you could never build one for that!

If not I will keep it and just make an effort to use it and enjoy it more!

Porkie, great car. Loved it for a long time. Was good to see it at PH/Autopsort also.

Didnt realise you broke your back when martin crashed in 04.

Has his new car beaten his old times yet?
