1988 Ford Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth




I bought this car in October 2006 after a brief spell in Lexus LS400. The car was virtually standard then but it had no dashboard, no MOT, no tax, the wheels were heavily corroded, the front bumper and both front doors had minor damage, the ignition lock was different, it had no alarm or immobiliser & generally ran badly due to a combination of faults.

It took me around 6 weeks to get it back on the road and since then I've resprayed the front bumper, fitted a set of refurbished wheels, new front disks, new ignition lock, alarm & immobiliser. I still have to change the front doors but they are sat in my garage waiting to be fitted.

I started modifying it by fitting a panel filter, group A coil, 4x4 intercooler then I had it live mapped by Norris Motorsport.

1996 Golf gti 16 valve.

This is Catherine's new car. This replaces her VR6 that she's owned for 2 and a half years. We didn't buy it with a mind to her keeping it but she loved it so I had to swap all of the parts from her VR6 on to this.

It started out as a standard gti with a leather interior but now has the hella headlights, koni suspension & 288mm brakes that were all fitted to her VR6. I added the VR6 wheels because I think they look much better than the gti wheels. I plan to refurbish the wheels at a later date when I get time and to do them anthracite with a silver rim.
