RFChris Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 I know, i know.....stop buying cars Chris. I always wanted a 3 door Cossy, if only because i love the way they look. The only problem is i could never insure a proper 'worth, let alone buy one (£7000+++++) So i always thought i;d look for a decent replica. And here it is... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... %3AIT&rd=1 Its ready for the final touches. I really want it...... Whaddya reckon?
Wessie Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 i would have it (only because i'll never be able to afford a genuine 1 !)
PIG Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 i like that,gotta be worth a punt if it dont go mad at the last
RFChris Posted October 14, 2006 Author Report Posted October 14, 2006 Indeed. It should still motor along nicely with 2.8 between the srtuts too! Chris
caprifan Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 personally ...cossie looks without the power...you would look pretty stupid in a lot of situations.

Retromotorsport Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 Shame that A pillar needs replacing ... that aint surface rust, thats rot!!!
RFChris Posted October 15, 2006 Author Report Posted October 15, 2006 Shame that A pillar needs replacing ... that aint surface rust, thats rot!!! Wouldn't be a Ford without a bit of tin-worm!
Hilux Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 dont want rot on an "a" pillar chris, in a heavy accident it would weaken the car considerably! if you've ever seen a wreck of a car thats been in a heavy front end accident you would see that the "a" pillars should remain fairly straight whilst pushing the roof up, with weak pillars they would probably snap and come towards you! i know we dont alwayts think about these things but would any of us put kids/family in a dangerous car? as gary says it needs replacing not covering up and made to look good. your call mate, but what other rot has it got that you cant see?

IF i do buy it all that will be fixed. Its just cheap 3 door witht he hard work done. But we'll see...... Thanks for the advice!
dssean Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 buy it and my mates 24v cossie granada , mix together and you have a very different sierra cossy
Guest ricky Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 Don't worry what the haters say at least it's got the correct badge on the grille and matching engine and not some Vauxhall shite under the bonnet Get it bought me ol china
