Wierd. A bit of badge engineering maybe?

come on now mackie, we're in detective mode! you should've looked at the properties, found the origin of the picture, and read the full history on ebay by now!!!

i nearly brought a 3.0 sierra .it was south african by origin.but was put off by the fact id never heard of one either (and the fact it was well ropey!)

They do a couple of extra models in SA, if i remember rightly they do a XR8, which is a sierra with a V8 in it.

yes the brother in laws sisters husband had one he shiped over here when they moved over here from SA

There are loads of different ford models over there. How about an Escort pick-up! mk3&4 versions.

I used to have a Marina 1.5 D, export only model, mine was a maltise taxi, I got in exchange for welding a couple of sills on a mini.

Sold the engine to a fisherman in St Ives for £400 (BMC 1 1/2 litre, 30BHP) - that was £200 a sill!!
