I am sort of programmed to get a frisson when I see a Sierra Cosworth, I was 14/15 when they first appeared. Remember we were, as a society, still reeling from the Sierra itself being released four years prior, the futuristic "Jelly Mold" shape took some getting used to, Ford had been selling three box saloons drawn with a ruler, and this swoopy bd appears, then they go and pump it up and stick a big fk off wing on the back, flabbers were whatever the next level up from gasted is.

I drove a lad at works standard Sapphire, I was a bit disappointed, it was quick ish but I had built it up too much over the years. I can totally see the appeal, which is mainly looking at it, and driving it round, can think of lots of better ways to spend 200k on a car to actually
