Background: The Sierra 2.8 V6 4x4 Estate represented one of Ford’s most capable all-weather models of its era.
Combining the familiar Cologne V6 with permanent four-wheel drive, it offered strong performance, sure-footed handling and impressive practicality.
Estates fitted with this drivetrain were produced in notably lower numbers than the saloons and have become increasingly sought after among Ford enthusiasts, particularly as surviving examples are now scarce.
With its usable performance and reliable mechanicals, the 2.8 4x4 Estate has earned a reputation as both a capable classic and a promising long-term collectable.
The Car: With only one previous owner and a genuine mileage of 51,125, this Sierra 2.8 V6 4x4 Estate is an unusually well-preserved example of a rare model.
Soon to be tax and test exempt, it remains in excellent condition inside and out, with only a few minor blemishes noted on the original two-tone paintwork.
