Hmm. Did the XR4i come out of SVO? I can't remember. You wouldn't describe an RS Mexico or a Capri 2.8i as 'a Ford', would you? That would be like describing War and Peace as 'a book'.

150 or 160? either way, far too much power for a car not set up for it in those days.
Did the XR4i get upgraded suspension and brakes from a regular Sierra? Probably not.
