One of my friends has turned up tonight with a Sierra Cosworth - looks like this (it's not this one, this link is just for reference)

- he only paid just under £3k for it (£2.8k I think he said for cash), it's done 101k miles, is 2wd, and has a fresh MOT. Seems to be in pretty much perfect order - no odd lights/sounds, seems to go and stop OK. Has a discreet boost gauge hidden half under the dash - what kinda boost should it be running stock? Can't remember what year it is. Doesn't appear to have any rot and it even seems quite shiny... Also maybe possibly have fettled suspension - we're not sure on that.
Did he get a good buy, assuming it's not about to grenade itself spectaculary? It goes very well in a straight line for a like, 18 year old car or however old it is heh. Needs new rear tyres though - even more so now...
