reyland did a sierra aswell

they crashed the escort on the gumball rally and built a sierra instead, one of the things i remember about it (read a magazine) it has a nissan skyline sequuential gearbox mounted to a custom bellhousing that fits there nis cosworth engine

what i dont get is quaife do exelent sequential box's so why go through the trouble of fitting a skyline 'box :ermm:

thats better :ermm: just been in GT4 for the first time in ages. appauled they dont have a sierra or even escort of any kind on there! so instead i raced a Nismo Skyline R32, Skyline R34 N1, and bought a Merc 190E Evo and Audi Quattro. Peace has been restored!

whats the entrance music to the 5th gear vid? i need it

i also think i need to start playing GT4 again. damn you people, now ive failed my exams for good! :ermm:

i had no idea i like so many fords so much. its only now ive thought about it. Sierra's , Escort's, Fiesta's, Capri's, Cortina's (all the old ones of course!)


Not sure of the tune, Josh might know it. All i know is that the pitch of it gets higher and higher.

Cortinas are nice, ONLY the mkIs and mkIIs, and you left out the old angle box's too :ermm:

for me its the mkII cortina and the mkI escort and fiesta. the escort or cortina is hopefully going to be my 'slightly more practical' car in a few years time. then i might be able to carry 3 passengers! exciting!

in my early years of, cant afford a cossie so I'll build a really quick mini instead, there was a cosworth specialist based nearby in humble bedworth, the cars I used to see on the forecourt on Saturdays were simply astounding - but looking back 250 HP in those days was considered simply absurd.

Reyland Sierra was an animal. Much prefer it to the Escort.

I only like the original of that tune to be honest.
I reckon the remixes sound naff.

Went to Silverstone today and found this Cossie in the carpark, although I suspect it's a replica.
