Hi M8 and welcome
very nice looking scorpio, you paid how much for it  what a bargin, sorry to hear about the sierra ! no just kidding they are a nice car but try one against a 24v Cossy Scorpio at the lights and i'm sure you'll be looking to buy a scorpio cossy and px the sierra...........LOL
2.9 cossy power, theres nothing like it
Cheers

Yes... the woodgrain 6000 radio. Nice little extra there
Ain't it just crying out for thr 12-spoke alloys though? 
As Dean says, the Cossie Scorpio is a belter. Not sure about its off the lights performance compared to the Sierra though  Maybe we need to carry out some testing, you know, just for confirmation

Oh and as for the 24 valve arguement im not getting to involved, but i do know a little bit about the bob and the boa engines. and compared to a YB in a Sierra Cosworth.
I wont go there, although i love the torque they have to get a bob or a boa pushing 270bhp costs some money.
I love both so im impartial
