1992 Ford Sierra xr4x4 review from UK and Ireland
"V6 thrills for peanuts!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch cable snapped and the front discs were warped when I bought it.
General comments?
The XR4x4 is a an absolutely storming car. Its blisteringly quick with massive torque, giving a quick ride even with 5 people in it. There's not much that can beat it to 60mph and even less to 100. It tops out at about 140mph (on a private road of course) and handles superbly, especially in the wet when the four wheel drive comes into its own. Replace the lame front seats with Cosworth Recaros, and you've got a real flyer for less than £1500.
