You will probably get that question answered on the barge 1-5 thread.
A lot of knowledge to be found there.
But in short, the answer is fking brilliant.
This has the better engine

If you want a highly capaciou,s straighforward, long-lasting super-useful estate car with comfy seats, yes, they're great. Don't expect super dynamism or speed but they keep up with the traffic and they're solid stable thigs to cruise around it. I have a lot of time for them if you need something that's not quite as big as a van, but which can do things you might otherwise need a van for.

Built by Saab. In that case I'd rather get a Saab estate shed and take my chance with a inflatable mattress, duvet and a 12v kettle. That wart on the back of a Sierra doesn't look the safest add on I've seen.

'Very rare, not many seen' - yeah, like none !!

I'm after a camper car, just don't think it'll be this one. I wonder what condition the Sierra is in though ?

115k miles and the driver's seat looks like that? Was it driven by a lion?

Not made by SAAB, made by another firm, originally they were made for SAABs, but they also did Sierras

Didn't see the seat pic...sure you could get a replacement and still be up on the turbo posted above.

You can keep that one, I'd take the top heavy Sierra over this thing. Never understood why anyone likes them, they seemed like a car designed by someone who doesn't drive.

Agreed. As well kept as that one seemingly is, they're about as desirable as genital worts.

I am at the point I'm debating one, where do they suffer? I presume your XJR handle means you have or have had one!

Collection will be Monday and I'll get some pictures then. I'd post the ones from the advert, but I'm worried someone may try to get me sectioned.
