The Ford Sierra is a large family car that was built by Ford Europe from 1982 until 1993. It was designed by Uwe Bahnsen, Robert Lutz and Patrick le Quément. The code used during development was "Project Toni".

First unveiled on 22 September 1982 and with sales beginning on 15 October 1982, it replaced the Ford Cortina and Ford Taunus. Its aerodynamic styling was ahead of its time and as such, many conservative buyers (including company car drivers) did not take fondly to the Ford Cortina's replacement.

Possibly for this reason (and the fact that the smaller Escort was enjoying an increase in sales during the early 1980s), and the early lack of a saloon variant, it was mainly manufactured in Germany, Belgium, and the United Kingdom, although Sierras were also assembled in Argentina, Venezuela, South Africa and New Zealand.

The Sierra was the 1983 Semperit Irish Car of the Year in Ireland.

A valuable guide to the Euro Speedway Lausitz in Eastern Germany using my immaculate and factory condition Ford Sierra Cosworth saloon which is capable of speeds upwards of 180mph from its turbocharged four cylinder Cosworth tuned engine. I hope you will find the running commentary in this clip a useful guide to both the circuit and the car itself.
