1991 Ford Sierra XR4x4 review from UK and Ireland
"I waited to find a good one, well worth it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Thermostat needs renewing.
One wheel bearing has started to squeak slightly.
A slight knocking noise is coming from the cam, indicating some wear to the cam.
General comments?
Good petrol consumption on motorways.
Eats petrol round town.
Very comfortable even at 140mph with four passengers and a boot full of luggage.
The EFI cackle can sound offputting.
Standard 14 inch wheels and tires are too bouncy, would benefit with larger wheels and lower profile tires.
