1988 Ford Sierra XRi 4X4 review from Sweden
"It's a lot of car for less than £1000"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch wire broken
Exhaust replaced
Front outer rubber grommet replaced.
General comments?
Its absolutely the best winter car I have ever owned. Goes anywhere, heated windshield, heated mirrors. And driving it on the ice track on a lake is just about as fun as it gets. It has good performance and handles very well. I bought a second one that will be restored. Would like to have a bit more power, my Volvo had a Chevy 350 V8.
