I was just having a nose on ebay and a few other sites looking at sierra's and I can't believe how much the prices have risen to buy a bog standard sierra :o, I've notice a couple have slipped through the net and sold for less than 200 but the rest. 4-500 for one mad!
I pleased now I bought mine months before I started my build. I reckon there must be a couple people out there sat on a gold mine who have been Hoarding them.
When I last looked for sombody, I found a guy with about 50 Sierra's in his back garden for sale on eBay.
Would be good to know what would be tomorrows donor car and hoard those ;D

I paid £85 for my Sierra last Febuary out of the trade-it. It would seem in the local pages people don't know what they go for and just ask for what its actually worth. I'll keep my eye out in future though as £500 for a sierra's a joke.
My guess on tomorrow's donor car, E30/36 BMW's or Vauxhall Omega's. Both can be bought cheep now and are the crucial RWD.
If that was the red one i remember seeing that on trade-it. i picked mine up late Feb early march i put a wanted ad in for it. i paid £140 for mine (not taking into account the money i made back from fallen change from pockets £2.43 ;D ) I went to cardiff to get it, but i was pleased with it 1 owner from new with FSH,
Yeah the BMW seems the choice route and older cheap MX5's if you've got the space time to get collecting :D
Got given one year before last as my mate was going to build a Haynes roadster. Ended up weighing it all in as he couldn't spare the time.
