1992 Ford Sierra LX review from UK and Ireland
"It suits the amateur mechanic"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
'Little end' (piston) bearing broken when the vehicle was acquired.
Distributor was faulty.
Lower arms needed replacement.
General comments?
The steering is very heavy at low speeds.
But the engine is very easy to service, quite easy to remove and replace, and reliable enough so far.
Being an estate, it is easy to load and very useful, with a surprising amount of capacity.
It is comfortable and I feel safe driving it.
