Well, some guy was selling his sierra, a 87 3-door 2.0CL really cheap, so, as i lack a car with license plates and MOT, i bought it. It is okay for the price, but the gearbox whines in 2nd and 3rd, and i think its leaking oil onto the clutch, as it is very hoppy when taking off in 1st or reverse. Rear shocks are shot too. But, all in all, a ok car. Was thinking of cleaning it and slamming it on some small fat wheels, but i don't really know if i`m gonna spend money on it, as i`m not really into sierras. Pictures will come tomorrow. Trying to convince the owner of this that he wants to sell his wheels to me ;D  |

3 door MK2 sierra. don't think we ever got them in the UK or at least I have never seen one.
Saw one in Spain last week though must have been one of the last ones in black, povo spec and it had the facelifted black rear lights and clear front front indicators. Looked mint, but didnt have a camera to get a pic.
Nice looking car all the same Madmaxx

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts |
