As a Yorkshireman, I really love these sorta builds..)) Someone whom knows what there doing, how to do it, and just gets it done,...@ minimal cost/s. These projects are even more intriguing, interesting & clever than anyone whom just throws £1000's @ a car/project, because it takes real guile to figure out how to do/build such a thing on what is more than likely a 'very tight' budget. I just love it!!
Superb car, Lovely colour, The all black bumper on the front makes it look aggressive! …oh how modern cars have lost their way now with styling nothing comes close to these older classics :)
Im starting really appreciate these old fords. Especially the sapphire 4 doors!!! Coming from a die hard bmw fan, specifically my e46 330i prefacelift saloon!
Another cracking vid Adam, really like this build. Great to see a fellow petrol head getting stuck in and building his own car. I bet it’s great fun to drive. Credit to the fella for doing it on a budget as well. Great stuff 👏🏼👍🏼
Ive ran a bunch of different types of pinto turbos, that's probably about 160hp, great for a daily driver though. I used to run exactly the same setup in a Sierra estate on standard management.
Sick, what the everyday guy of my age would love. I speak for myself obviously. But this sort of build is affordable for people who want that 90’s retro look and sound.
@@Diesel8290 maybe not so much today but back then when the 3 door came out it was the fastest accelerating stock 3 door 5 seat hatchback in the world.they could out pace a ferrari testorossa in certain speed ranges.thats not slow by any means.
Talking about ford Sierra stereo's.... I'm lucky to have a standard factory ford stereo and cd player Love the originality of it And engine has just ticked over to 80,000 It's a survivor
@@RustyShackleford66 haha nah Cosworth are the BOYS! It's just a Sierra or Escort Cosworth is literally designed from the ground up for way over 200bhp, those cars are literally begging for the boost to be turned up!
@@TheWildPikey When they were a about 3 years old. late 80s, early 90s. Bodge/boy racer jobs with Fords went back a lot further. You used to see some right sights. There used to be a magazine (can't remember the name of it) before the Internet with a few pages of pictures of cars sent in called 'Readers Cars' There were some good cars but most of the time it was the magazine posting the pics to take the pi55.
4x4 chasiss is different, need a lot of hammering to fit 4x4 mt75 gearbox ask me how i know xD But beside that, all works cushty. Great car there mate, mine is going for body work next week, then a little restomods and we play on streets again :D
Cool car 👌.. I had the chance yrs ago to buy my mates gold Sierra sapphire 20i ghia 4x4 after he put it off the road for a small bit of welding. And he lost his garage space but I couldn't get the space to store it 😣😞 gutted as it was minted.
Looks like 150bhp given the lack of G forces on acceleration. He likes it but I would suggest either keep it standard or buy a cosworth that needs work.
A nice car on a reasonable budget, mind you I would have prolly put abit more money Into getting a better ball bearing turbo. But damn I love the look of this build.
I had a 1983 Mk1 Sierra 3 Door 1.6L in the same colour with not a spec of rust on it anywhere that i put a rover sd1 engine in and a scorpio 24v cosworth interior that bolted straight in too it and a cosworth bodykit back in 2002 it was a mint drive i had some laughs in that thing, I bought a 2.0 litre mondeo to turbo it and put the engine in it and never got round to it then sold it to a guy from essex who wanted it for banger racing duh, I wish i had never got rid of it i still kick myself now when i think of it.
Aww bless, its like when your dad used to say his V8 rover was a "flying machine" when it did 0-60 in something like 13s. Or the local 17 year old reckoned his RS125 did 130mph. Utterly deluded.
What a guy!!!! The owner is a legend!!!!! So laid back and just a total top bloke!!!! Need more videos on this car!!!!!
This chap knows how to put fun into his motoring 👍
This is a proper "Fast Ford" and what they are about for me.. Love it pls catch up with this fella when he does the 16 valver con. 😎🇬🇧✌👍👊
Front wheel drive 4cylinder 😂 cool story bro
@@jiggaroozay7572 sierra is back wheel drive?
@@jiggaroozay7572 rwd 😂 you just keep being wrong 🤦🏻♂️🤷♂️
@@TheWildPikey lol probably. recently moved to the Uk can’t stand the cars here 🤣 sorry if I offended
Simply a cracking car, nice budget build, and he’s lovely bloke too.Hope you see him again after the 16v conversion

Sometimes its not just about the result, its about how you got there.
i like to spend the extra 5k to be able to drive it everywhere with no worries while making around 350bhp
great car , love to see a bloke build a car that he loves so much even though its not worth tens of thousands , he just loves it

Love this! Reminds me of my mates old Sapphire, it was originally the Turbo Technics demo car. 2.0 Pinto with a T4 off an RS 500, absolutely flew
After he said “you’ll need a sports bra “ I just couldn’t take my eyes off your moobs mate when you were in the car 😂😂
🤣😍
It's very old no offence lol I'm 50 now remember them well lovely 😊
Love budget builds, I want one 😄
Great watch Adam thanks again for your time bro
My pleasure!
Nice to see a single cam pinto motor on the channel. Makes me feel better about my xr4ti. 👌
I had a pinto turbo mk2 escort rs2000 and it was a flying machine
Really love this video
Got a black 1992 ford Sierra estate 2.0 dohc 8v
A project like this as a budget build is right up my street
Great content bud
I Love to see the real passion you have for cars adam 👌 budget builds or show ponies👌
Quality car, and guy who owns it is 100% stand up, cool as a cat.
Adam: "Can I have a look inside"
Sean: "You can do anything you want Adam"
Adam: "Can you turn around and touch your toes...."
😂
and squeal like a pig.
Top bloke and a top car i love it as it is looks superb and not pretending to be a cosworth .
Love the Sapphire. In any form. My favourite Ford shape ever.
Love shit like this you can't beat a home brew turbo conversion

Love this. In Sweden I've seen standard sierras (non cosworth) with saab engines with bmw gearboxes. So cheap.
MT75 was also in a DOHC Sierra and Granada
At last a real world build where money is tight this guys brilliant great video guys
I had a pinto engined transit back in the day - drifty
This is how it should be, having fun and creating your own unique thing.
Ive ran a bunch of different types of pinto turbos, that's probably about 160hp, great for a daily driver though. I used to run exactly the same setup in a Sierra estate on standard management.
Oh this is right up my street! reminds me of my stepad and what he used to do back in the day.
Beautiful car. The essence of do it yourself and create something amazing to enjoy. Well done mate, cracking motor 👌🏻
Only seen the title and still on the starting advert and love this one already!
Dad had a sapphire in this colour on a jreg, many memories as a kid im 30 odd now 😂
My mate had something similar years ago. Kept blowing #1 spark plug
Really interesting build, given me inspiration, with prices of RS's atm is only way to go
What a great looking car adam it suits that colour once again fantastic content thanks to you both.
Our pleasure!👍🏼
Great video love it! Love the fact it’s different that he’s adamant it’s not not going to be a cosworth looking forward to an update on this one 😎
Sick, what the everyday guy of my age would love. I speak for myself obviously.

Great car... technically much more interesting than most other cosworths, as with cosworts, you know what you get👍👍👍👍👍
Keep these vids coming
12:40 - thought you were an engineer Adam 🤣🤣 That’s a real blooper 🤣🤣👍
"it's not FAST".. Poor bloke looked like he was about to cry Adam 🤣👍
Lovely bloke but he was pissing in the wind when he thought it'd be as fast as a cossie 🤣 maybe when it's upgraded to 16v it might be there abouts
@@Christbp cosworth aren’t even that fast standard lol
@@Diesel8290 maybe not so much today but back then when the 3 door came out it was the fastest accelerating stock 3 door 5 seat hatchback in the world.they could out pace a ferrari testorossa in certain speed ranges.thats not slow by any means.
Ahh bring back memories my first car was a jade green 1.8 litre GLX
great car ,looks and sounds very nice ...
Loving the 90s stainless steel badboy exhaust👌
If you can't have fun with your project car... Then there is no point..
This lad has it sorted. 😎
What 16v head would fit the Pinto other than YB? Deadly car, you don't see many builds like this.
Loving this content another grass roots cool as you like build keep them coming Adam 😀
Thanks Dan 😊
Daddy has a rwd saph running 400bhp - it’s fast .. very fast but bet this is as much fun and it’s cheep if you bin it
Man your channel is awesome Adam! Becoming my favourite with a Jeffrey and a cuppa!
@@Roundholesinsquarepegsa joint.
Definitely less than 200 bhp, I have the same setup. They are a fun conversation
Talking about ford Sierra stereo's....
I'm lucky to have a standard factory ford stereo and cd player
Love the originality of it
And engine has just ticked over to 80,000
It's a survivor
beautiful old Hector ... if she were mine I might consider colour coding those bumpers but otherwise just awsome..
awesome project! the mt75's from a scorpio (granada) 4banger should see you in current set up and good for a bit more too
Nice machine 👍🏎! Fluent banter always adds to the experience 😁
That is quality👌🏻
He is Loving his car and it hasn’t cost a fortune so a canny result really,like that he has some air max BWs on aswell 👍🏻
Merry Christmas
Now that's a motor I see why u love it proper motor
Nice looking thing
Glad he said it ain’t running loads of boost cos it’s very flat
two top guys ,great to watch ...thanks
I remember seeing tests of these Sierras with turbos added and they were ALWAYS more powerful than a production Cosworth.
Usually with a better spread of torque too!
Yeah, those muppets at Cosworth didn't have a clue.
@@RustyShackleford66 haha nah Cosworth are the BOYS! It's just a Sierra or Escort Cosworth is literally designed from the ground up for way over 200bhp, those cars are literally begging for the boost to be turned up!
Oh, how times have changed. Back in the day your mates would be laughing their bo11ocks off if you turned up in this. Seriously.
How long ago was back in the day? This sort of thing/car/modding was very popular not too long ago 🤷♂️

The banter 😂 as if you’ve known each other years. Nice one 😁👍
Lovely car and a nice genuine fella excellent video adam
Amazingly Cheap and well worth every penny.
Love the channel mate. What a car!
Thanks Robbo 😊👍🏼
I’d say this motor is so but better than that cossy rep you had on purely cause he’s not made it look like a cossy well done class video
Brilliant what lovley bloke love his Sierra 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Top honest bloke 👏👏
Loads of fun, great car.
I’ve seen this driving around canvey in the last. Never knew it was turbo’d
Cars like this are fantastic!!
Love this. Lad is funny aswell.

Love the colour of that car , its proper mint 😏🤙
Cool car, I think the owner needs a ride in a sorted stage 1 Cossie.
some motor that, great video mate
A cossy bottom end is a strengthened pinto engine
That’s what cosworth did or should I say do they came in fords
And basically made a 16v pinto 😊
Well done with the build
Looks like 150bhp given the lack of G forces on acceleration. He likes it but I would suggest either keep it standard or buy a cosworth that needs work.
How do you measure g forces on video by looking at someone's movements? I'm genuinely curious?
I've nearly done this conversion on my cortina estate. Although it only owes me 800 quid.......
Looks really good and what a beast

Great car and a top bloke.
Nice colour very leary!
Something about this one I like alot
Steering rack setup different on 4x4 too
Well it's looking good and I bet you won't see another one 👍🎄🥳
Love it love it
Biker Grove!! How ay man spuggie!! Eye x 1000
I'm sure this car was from Chelmsford, or "Roxwell" I used to look after a 2.0 Ghia in green EXACTLY the same. Sure it was that reg was back in 2005.
Aww bless, its like when your dad used to say his V8 rover was a "flying machine" when it did 0-60 in something like 13s. Or the local 17 year old reckoned his RS125 did 130mph. Utterly deluded.
Actually the rover 3500 vitesse did o to 60 in around 7.5 seconds.
@@ivanfernyhough3851 Wow, so probably about 3s quicker than this thing.
Where does he find these bargains..great bloke great episode 👌🏻
I get what he says about being short legged, can be a bloody nightmare to get a decent driving position.
I think his heart was broken abit when you said it wasnt fast 😂 however it's not all about that it's the way m they make you feel, cool old Sierra .
Cool car. Great vid.
