i think it came as standard on that model, but you should be able to test it by placing a weight over one corner of the boot.....

hi there
they should look like this, unless they've been changed at some time.

Star sign is Scorpio !
Sierra XR4i's are great...especially when fitted with 4WD

i think they did mike, however they're expensive to replace so a lot of owners replaced them with the standard item when needed.

hi there
there's no 'standard' shocks for the estate, as such. a 'bodge' is to use sierra estate (i think) ones, as these are only about £100 a pair, instead of £400. they're not self levelling, though.

Thanks all. I guess I must have self-leveling as they look the same as the shocks in Scorpios pic. Thanks Scorpio. Do they operate by internal design operation or is there electronic connection controlling them 
Thanks Tim
