Just browsing some Cosworths for sale on Trade Me and came across this...
http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used...-514890629.htm Be a nice cossie to own by the looks without the history, but that unique history is certainly interesting. |

Seeing this thread reminds me that I saw 4 black Sierra Cosworths at the Clybucca BP at the beginning of the month when I was on my way back from Newcastle.
Two of them were on trailers and the others were parked up with them.

At present i own a pair of supercharged GTP Fords but i used to own one of these incredible cosworths and i will always have a soft spot for them.At the time i owned a VR Clubsport and was offered a drive in one of these Sierras but i was reluctant being a four cylinder car i wasnt interested.I was talked into it and 7 days later had the Clubsport sold and a Sierra in my possesion.Only drawback was parts availability and time to get them but what a great little car.Sold it to finish new house but still love seeing them.

Never knew there was a green rocker cover version. You learn something everyday.
I thought they were all red. |

The later models Sapphires were fitted with the green rocker covers I believe, I think when then introduced catalysts ?

And the Escort Cossies had Blue rocker covers to confuse the issue.
