The wheels were made for me by Image.....

Could NOT find anything other than Compomotive MOs off the shelf, that would clear the brakes

Looking at the plaque I'd sat 405BHP.

What and absolute beauty! ... 3 doors make me go all tingly.

Very nice indeed and good photos too. I'm not a big fan of chroming or additional gauges but I can appreciate a nicely finished Sierra when I see one, and it's clear this car's been done properly. Wheels are very nice indeed and well in keeping with the spirit of the car. Well done fella. Nice to see a tidy motor...!

Stunning - wasn't this in a mag (quite a few years ago), owned by someone who owns a chroming factory?
