wait a bit. There were loads on eBay a few weeks ago when I bought some. There'll be load on again soon no doubt. They don't have to be
cosworth ones, any sierra or granada ones will do as far as I know.
I bought some remanufactured ones of eBay. They are really good. Just as good as new infact.

i was thinking about getting cossie front calipers of jim at stoneliegh tomorrow, they are in gold, and a set of those rear sierra calipers from the
link above to fit the rear of the car, i am running 260mm x 24mm (drilled,grooved and vented) on the front, and 253mm x 10.1 (solid grooved and
drilled) on the rear would these calipers be ok?
cheers guys

You definately don't want to try and put 4pot cossie 2wd calipers on the front - overbraked/weigh a ton and won't fit standard sierra
uprights.
Rear calipers for disc braked cars are roughly all the same caliper so if you buy anything 'cosworth' your paying a premium just for the
name.
The cosworth 4x4 (sierra/escort & granada) rear calipers are different as they are for vented 273mm rears.

Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.
