When i was 15 i got given the Ford Sierra Sapphire 2.0 lX, it was abandoned in a pub car park for over a year.
It fired up on the first touch of the key and since endured 500 miles of seriously hard driving, usually with two or three mates in the back. This car has had such a caining and never missed a beat, a more reliable car you wont find.
I once beat a rover 400 turbo around the local back roads, 110 mph all the way!.What a fantastic old car.It also looks proper gangster i tell thee!
