1992 Ford Sierra Sapphire LX review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Where to start!!??
Bought with 38,000 on the clock.
Gearbox fails on the way home from (not Ford) dealer. Get's "new" gearbox. 1,000 miles later that fails. Pay £800 for new gearbox from Ford dealer. Not covered by useless aftermarket warranty.
2 engines failures in 30,000 miles.
Traded in at a Rover dealer with engine number 3 on last legs.
2 sets of front discs.
General comments?
Would have been a nice car if reliable, although 26mpg is not acceptable for a 90hp car. Lovely inside and made an excellent Motorway muncher.
