    Doubt it's 87, as it has Series 2 front and rear lights. So more like 90+.

    And even at that i'v never seen an 87 Mk2, as the Mk1 Cosworths were mostly D regs which is 87.

    And there is also Cosworth clocks in the car (170 instead of 150mph)

    It's also a Ghia spec, wipers on lights and electric windows all round.

    And it's a 2.0 Pinto, the 2.3 was a V6.



    What's the best you'd do on it?

    And there is also Cosworth clocks in the car (170 instead of 150mph) Its a Cosworth replica, whats your point?

    It's also a Ghia spec, wipers on lights and electric windows all round. Again, its a Cosworth replica, this stuff came standard in Cosworths so i'd just call this car a good replica...

    And it's a 2.0 Pinto, the 2.3 was a V6. No, there is such thing as a 2.3 pinto, also, what did the so called 2.3 v6 your on about come in?

    The 2.3 Pinto was only fitted to Argentina/US Sierras.

    And the Sierra Sapphire was launced in late '87, so very rare to see an '87 one.

    And the majority of people don't bother with the clocks unless they know exactly what there doing.


    Heres a Cologne v6 in my Mk2 Granada, (As I got it, since tidied up)



    Anything else you would like to know?
