1992 Ford Sierra GLXi review from UK and Ireland
"A great car considering its age"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Apart from usual service stuff, it's had a rear caliper, a radiator, a complete exhaust system and a cylinder head gasket.
While I was in the engine, I replaced all the oil seals and gaskets at the top of the engine, as well as the timing chain, tensioner and guides. The car has been serviced at 5.000 mile intervals.
General comments?
Yes I still have an old Sierra Estate. It has masses of luggage space and is pretty comfortable old bus.
The body is very tidy and rust free.
I use it mainly for longer journeys, it still goes like a rocket and frequently surprises people driving more modern motors.
It cruises quite happily on the speed limit, and if you want a bit more it just pulls and pulls.
