Stuart may murder me, but the corsa may end up being broken to fund this..
Two reasons mainly
One rotten chassis leg
one broken engine

you don't need 25k for a 3 door
and tbh, you'd be better buying a magenta 4x4 saff, on a k plate or something.

quote="Kiwi_Cossie"]Sadly time has come to sell my 1987 3 door sierra due to the arrival of my ST Focus (so all is not lost I guess)
Within the last 3000 miles she has had the following work done.
Engine competely rebuilt
New turbo
New radiator
New clutch
New heater matrix
New black diamond disks with EBC redstuff pads
New Group A headgasket
New Ford motorsport leads (200 miles ago)
Recent set up by GGR.
Haven't quite had the guts to total up how much that all cost, but I'm pretty sure it was well over 5 grand..
In addition to this it has had
Stage 1 chip
Polybushed suspension
3in stainless exhaust
Cat 1 full closure alarm and tracker
Samco hoses
K&N panel filter
Bailey Dump Valve
Strut Brace
Car is in very good condition with an unmarked interior apart from the usual cracked dash. Seat bolsters are in excellent condition, no rips or damage. Still has the original unholed parcel shelf.
Car has been garaged and well maintained, has just been serviced.
£8500ono
NEW PRICE £7900
