These were everywhere in the UK when i was growing up in the 80s and 90s. My family had several, both pre- and post-facelift (i always liked the original early 80s front with the square lights more.) Very comfortable cars in their day, with their velour interiors and soft American suspension! Seeing this makes me feel so old, even the 'bong, bong, bong' sound of the door chime takes me back! Pity this one is much too far gone rust-wise, but that's old Fords for you, and why there's hardly any Sierras left now except a few RS and Sapphire Cosworths that sell for crazy money.

[@konstantin88181]

My father had pre facelift Sierra 2.3L diesel. It was a great car, except in winters, when -25 and all the fuel turned into a wax.... car had no fuel heaters what so ever. There was a time when entire city was filled with those Sierras. Now they are living their last days as a winter drifters.

[@adid.5585]

When I was a kid, this car was my first love. I wished I would get one for myself when I grew old. Little did I know that the production of this model ended two years prior to my birth year. How naive I was! As I grew old, I realized my childhood dream will remain just a dream.

[@pioneeradx]

Too bad for the rust. This car deserves a second chance. It's not ready to die.

[@freedoom323]

These old sierras were so fun to drive, especially on snow :-) That 2.0 DOHC engine requires just Motorcraft sparkplugs, otherwise it will misfire. I also remember some other features back from old days when we were driving these as a kids and always were fixing something.

[@koljak9125]

My dad had got one of the first Sierras delivered worldwide in October 1982, a 1,6 L plain jane... I had myself a 1988 XR 4x4 with the faboulous 2,8 6 cylinder which was a quick car by the time I owned it; of course not by today's standards... I liked those Sierras although they were somewhat hideous but good cars all in all... Yours seems indeed to be one of the last of the line and thinking about it, it shocks me a bit that it's now more than 30 years ago that the model range ended ... time flies.

[@d.sparkes346]

Looks similar to a Murkur, only seen a handful here in Canada. A fellow I knew had a Xr4ti, was a fun little car. Great video once again folks!

[@d-d-i]

Merkur sold in US/Canada back in the day was indeed a rebadged Sierra. Never understood why Ford didn't sell it as just Ford Sierra over there. I guess they wanted to sell it there as it was a good familycar, but they had to ''americanize'' it somehow and not to make it as a part of the main brand. The name alone was confusing, since they already had Mercury in their lineup, so I bet that many got confused about that.

[@sagecouncil]

Nice video.. Those sierras were great..

[@willswheels283]

Very good content my friend when I see something about Ford Sierra my brain goes like and then

[@d-d-i]

Driven couple Sierras in the past, and I do remember 80's European Fords in general to be very good to drive, and comfortable too. Not sure is this too far gone in terms of rust, but the drivetrain is definitely worth to save.

[@ronny7952]

Great video liked it more ford sierra content love it 😍

[@hoggmotorsport]

Great revival 👌 good to see you're in a workshop out of the snow!! Awesome Sierra twin cam, MT75 'box and limited slip diff, perfect for the rally stage, with an abundance of opposite lock 👍

[@ilczuk1]

About diff. Isn't it just welded like in all winter beaters?

[@Blokey857]

.Another great revival. A very late sierra I'd say 92 just on the switch over to the mundane sorry mondeo. Can I ask what happens to all these classics do you sell them or part them out of just keep them.

[@patokaa93]

My father had a 1990 4 door Scorpio from new until 2002, with this same 2.0 DOCH and automatic transmission. I have very fond memories from it, I think it was a really nice looking car especially in the metallic dark blue we had it in. It wasn't the most reliable thing in the world: the driver's seat heater was replaced twice during the warranty perioid (1 year), and it broke the third time almost immeaditely after warranty, after that it was never fixed again. The transmission required an overhaul at somewhere around 150k km. And by the time dad gave it as part exchange for a Volvo S80, and it was 12-years old and had around 250k km on it, it already had some rust on it's rear wheel arches, and as far as I can remember, the fuel gauge had stopped working years ago. On the other hand, that was the reality of cars from that age: they just weren't built quite as good and the base-technique didn't last as long (transmission, engine) as cars now-a-days, although obviously in some ways modern cars are also less reliable at the same time due to increased complexity. Otherwise it was quite a nice car, very comfortable and quiet (for the time), and on long journeys the fuel consumption was really good (6.5l/100km even - 4th gear was really long and it had converter lock-up).

[@patokaa93]

Before anyone else gets to it, maybe it has to be said that although a similarly aged Mondeo (2012) with similar mileage (250k km) is overall in better condition with most likely no rust on the body and electronics still working as new, by then Ford (Europe) hadn't still quite managed to figure out the transmission part: I believe with 250k km most of those PowerShi(f)ts has been overhault at least once already...

Very good Ford 2.0 engine. This engine was mounted to the Polish Polonez. The best engine in Polonez.

[@tombouu]

Tylko że to jest zupełnie inny silnik, niż ten który był wmontowany w Polonezie. W Polonezie był montowany silnik starej generacji z rodziny Pinto ohc z jednym wałkiem rozrządu i z gaźnikiem o mocy 105 KM 156 niutonometrów Natomiast tutaj w tej sierra rze jest rewelacyjny najlepszy silnik Forda z dwoma wałkami rozrządu DOHC o mocy aż 120 koni mechanicznych. Szkoda że to właśnie nie ten silnik był montowany w Polonezie tylko jego najgorsza i najtańsza wersja i starsza do tego. Już lepszy był ten stary fiat-a silnik bo to był DOHC. Niestety od Forda Polska zakupiła najstarsze i najgorsze silniki od Forda o pojemności 2 l zapewne dlatego że były najtańsze

[@michals547]

@@tombouu Dzieki za sprostowanie. Jednak ,,stary silnik fiata" to nie 2.0/1.8/1.6 dohc , bo to są wówczas nowe silniki, bardzo dobre i nowoczesne z serii Aurelio Lampredi. W naszych fiatach i Polonezach były montowane rzeczywiście stare silniki fiata ohv( wałek w kadłubie, długie popychacze, trzy podpory wału) 1.3 i 1.5. Sporadycznie do Polonezów były montowane fiatowskie dohc 2.0.

[@tombouu]

@@michals547 napisałem że stare fiatowskie dohc bo w momencie premiery Forda dohc, Fiat dohc miały już około 15 lat! Dobre bo dobre ale stare. Tak samo jak nasze ohv miały dopiero 10 lat kiedy rozpoczęto produkcję 125p. Bardzo udane silniki, tylko nasza jakość spowodowała że były jakie były. Boję się myśleć teoretycznie jaka by była jakość polskich dohc, gdyby cudem pojawiły się w polskiej produkcji

[@michals547]

@@tombouu Idąc dalej tym tokiem to stwierdzamy, że silnik spalinowy o zapłonie iskrowym jest stary bo istnieje od 120 lat plus, a silnik elektryczny nie jest wcale nowszy bo też istnieje od około stu lat, w Polsce mieliśmy fabrykę samochodów elektrycznych Melex, które wysyłaliśmy na eksport, produkowaliśmy wózki-samochodziki elektryczne pocztowe, które jeździły po terenach PKP i po terenach fabryk, których mieliśmy w Polsce dziesięć tysięcy plus. Nie pisz bzdur i nie powielaj, że my w Polsce nie umieliśmy zrobić jakości bo to propagandowy bełkot czerskich, mający uzasadnić grabież i dewastację majątku narodowego, jakiego solidurnie dopuściły się PO 1990. Owszem, wychodził z fabryk czasem bubel, jak wszędzie, z winy ,,,opozycjonistów" i ,,,demokratów''', którzy w ten sposób ,,,walczyli z komuno".... Znasz termin ,,,odrzut z eksportu" ?

[@tombouu]

@@michals547 znam. Co nie zmienia faktu że była kiepska jakość ogólnie. Raz lepiej raz gorzej ale ogólnie kiepsko. Takie były realia,brak konkurencji, odpowiedzialności. Dziś jest sentyment do tych pojazdów, ale wtedy prawie każdy wolałby 10 letnie zachodnie niż nowe polskie. Ze mną było podobnie i chyba każdy kogo pamiętam. jak najbardziej podtrzymuję to co napisałem, żebyś zrozumiał czemu napisałem stare fiatowskie dohc w porównaniu z Fordem. Miało już wtedy grube 15 lat. W epoce silników to dużo. Mogło mieć, bo były to udane silniki, więc stosowane długo, aż do euro 1. Dopiero od Euro 2 Fiat wprowadził nowe zupełnie dohc 16v

What a toy!!! The engine is healthy and traction is good for snow with that LSD. I suppose ABS is not working because the light is ON, maybe a bad wheel sensor. Anyway, maybe it's better for snow for such an old ABS generation. Sierras are very underrated, the are very good cars for the time and very funny. This seems to be a catalyzed version, it has lambda sensor and a bit less power. AWD versions are awesome on snow. They had lsd in center and the rear. Pretty rare.

Ma 115 KM , najsilniejsza wersja bez katalizatora miała 125 km

@tombouu no que lo que me dices primo, de checo solo conozco kurwa. But yes, the model equipped with catalytic converter has 115cv and the manual (you can adjust gas enrichment with a control close to the battery) has 125. There is also a carburetor dohc version doing 108cv. You can mount the 16v overhead of Scorpio and also increase compression, you could have about 145cv. With rs2000 ecu probably 155.
