1991 Ford Sierra LX review from UK and Ireland
"Economical and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump seized and ripped the teeth off the cambelt. Managed to pull over in time to save the engine!
Other than that, only routine repairs.
General comments?
Fantastically reliable. Not particularly fast, and does nothing for your image, but if you're looking for a sturdy, well built car, you can't go wrong with a Sierra. However, watch out for fast growing rust patches!
