Right up my street this.!! I just got my e30 v8 on the road after a number of years off the road. It's the noise for me above all else ❤ some things cannot be replicated 😃 Well executed build that so credit to the owner. And in a world with 6 7 800 horse power builds, like my e30v8, not the fastest thing on the road granted, but not everything is about all out speed for me anyway. That looks like it pulls well enough and sounds good enough to put a smile in ya face every time. I love it 😎😎
I am working on a 1UZ Nissan Pickup. Its a long process. The engine is such a quality piece that I find myself trying to match it with other parts of the build. In the US the stock 1UZ engine makes about 220hp and weighs 220lbs. Thats hard to beat.
First time since I saw the top secret r33 that I have said to myself "that's a bit of me!!" I've had 10 Sierra's and that thing is everything I would want in a car!! Keep ya temperamental cossies that get trailered about! This for me, is the greatest built car that's been on the channel!!
Another fantastic episode guys,the V8 suits the Sierra 100% Thank you for making todays CCD event full of fun,what a lovely day was it...the burnout with the Micra with Nick on top of the bonnet was next level 👌
Awesome!!! Many childhood memories for me with Sierra's, my Mum had one this colour, base spec, but my Dad's was a Sapphire Cosworth in black, it was awesome 👌
I can still remember seeing this at quest motor sport when it was in its original colour which was a burgundy colour. Also pro alloy is in Haverhill in Suffolk. My mum used to live there and I would drive past the factory when going to see her .
the sierra is one of my dreams car and wish to be lucky enough to drive rick has done an absolute incredible job to make such an amazing piece of art the v8 is a proper screamer love the vid lads keep it coming !
I’m not a huge fan of Fords, but I am properly impressed that thing looks ace & sounds awesome, great content as always guys, I’m looking forward to more stuff on the MR2 your channel always puts a smile on my face 😎
Great build... There was originally a V8 model called the XR8 that was only available on the South African market back in the 80`s...very rare beast these days...
You know what Owen! You guys are gonna make it. I've watched hundreds of car channels on YT And after a couple of months, I'm like...... Do something different but, no..... Same old crap. Keep the great work guys, loving it.
In South Africa, they put a Ford 5.0 V8 into the Sierra. Called it an XR8, mostly for racing but they had to sell about 250 of them as roads cars. It was the 5 door body, so not quite as nice looking as this. I took one for a test drive. It was very fast off the line, sounded great, but a lead tipped arrow in corners.
I’ve got a random photo on my phone of all 3 of you after the Micra burnout live. I must’ve accidentally taken a screenshot and saw it a week later 😂 … I was like wtf is that? 😂
The saphs had the modified roof but the hatches always had the gutters etc be it 3 or 5 door. The 3 doors were sold in loads of territories other than the uk. Has it actually been corner weighted as my guess would be 1150kg with the cage, getting a Sierra to 1000kg takes some doing. Very neat build, I'd have to black out the back panel though!
Before I even watch, how silly cool sounding is the title - LS400 V8 Sierra, a ruddy cop car favourite from the 80's with an LS400 V8 . Monty Python think you are just being silly and we won't stand for it.
Such a wicked car, and Rick and his son are wicked fellas 👌🏼
When you getting your cossie on here mate

Totally agree
All the compliments for this build. ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. Superb Rick, self proclaimed biggest fan of this car. Great job as always lads.
Thanks a bunch! It is an unreal motor

Such a cool engine, this was way over 120k miles and still going strong
Saw the RetroRides posts about this car ages ago, so cool to see it on Motor Addicts

Glad you enjoyed it mate, it’s an epic build
Bonkers car this Sierra 3 door with a Lexus V8 cracking build👌👌👌👌😎😎😎😎
Proper car that, love love love that noise................And that was what the mad mile was built for..😁

Our pleasure! Great to see you again mate
@proudofyourroots9575 i'm old enough to remember the XR8
Reminds me of my lightning rod days, except for the v8.
Cage looks similar to what we used to do on the ovals.
Epic sound 😎
Superb build i love the sound of the lexus v8,
Really nice bloke and great car. Met him at the drivers collection show. Could do a vid on my escort some time if want 👍🏻 Phil with the k24 turbo btw
Do it, drop us a Dm on insta
The soundtrack of my people ❤
🤙🏻
that roll cage is an absolute work of art.
Proper piece of art
Awesome!!! Many childhood memories for me with Sierra's, my Mum had one this colour, base spec, but my Dad's was a Sapphire Cosworth in black, it was awesome 👌
Old Ford’s are the best fords
@@MotorAddicts absolutely
Fantastic ! Lovely build lovely sound a great episode thanks guys on a personal note The Ferrari V8 (F40) is my fav V8 Sound .
Nice to see Al from the Skid factory in the UK

Very cool!
Wow what a brilliant car amazing
Sounds like a proper Aussie V8 saloon racer. Great job, great driving
That v8 revs its ass off and loves it . great build .
My sincere respect to the Owener!
Watched it twice, that is gorgeous 😊
Glad you like it!
Fantastic car and very well built, the sound is intoxicating!
That soundtrack is amazing Great work Rick 👌👍👍👍👍👍

Much appreciated buddy, means a lot, we will try bringing the weird
The best Engin for a Sierra it will not brake down with LS V8 🤩
🤙🏻
It’s not an LS … it’s a 4.0 Jap v8
isnt a cosworth unless it has a cosworth engine running it
Rick's Sierra sounds evil in a good way, suitable cause it seems to be the type of car that you grow devil horns and a tail when driving
Agreed
What a great build
Fantastic car
Fantastic build, I honestly thought the paint was an original Ford colour, was it Wedgewood blue, if not its very similar.
Not a fan of the colour but that’s some build very well done sounds feckin awesome too 🤙
This car is a work of art 😍
Absolutely beautiful, the sound....damn
Couldn't agree more!
Hi guy's,great video and what a brilliant car. Brilliant build and sounds just fantastic. Alex.
Glad you enjoyed it
That v8 sounds amazing ❤
seen this monster before son it's fire kidd yemann 💯💪
Holy shit, that's a great build!
💯
Saw this on Adam Smiths channel what a weapon 🔫
Awesome build and great engine choice 👍smiles per bhp
💯
Wow i think this is my new dream car what a build. Dangerous, sounds nuts and looks great what more can a car addict want haha.
💯
Sound of that V8 is insane love to take it to some cool ford meets 😅
He does take it everywhere
The sound is awesome! I’d take this out just to feel like a Rockstar on the road 😎👍
It’s a proper beast, but the sound is epic
Lexus V8's sound sooo good, RCF and the LC500 are pure theatre
💯
Ive always loved the Sierra such a mean looking car.great video guys 👍
Much appreciated buddy
@@MotorAddicts Ur welcome, just keep doing what you are doing. Uve turned me into a proper addict 😂
isnt a cosworth unless it is rinning the cosworth yb or ybb engine
@@ethanyatesey1 totally agree
Wow that sounds amazing and what a well built car. The guy knows his shit 💪👍
💯
Great car and video
Glad you enjoyed it
Quality build & vid. I want one.
Appreciate it mate
2:40 still looks great and sounds awesome.
Sierra deserves and suits a v8
onyl if its made they way the ybb cosworth engine i sbuily it has to be a cosworth engine to be a real cosworth

Wallop, what a motor great job 👌🏻
Love a 1UZ thirsty buggers though
Would love to drop this engine into a late model XR 4X4 or 4X4 Sapphire. Just keep the interior and the body factory. 👌
400bhp my mates MK1
sierra cossy kicked out 600bhp and tail happy is a understatement I was expecting more from a LS3.
It’s 300hp and runs a 1uz. Love to have fitted an ls 3 and definitely would be running 400+hp 👍🏼
Love v8s 🙏🏻💚👌🏻✌🏻
Ditto
Amazing example of a mk2 sierra
ford knew the sierra needed a V8 when they made the XR8
Agreed
That's friggin mega, can I have a go 😅
HOLY SHIT AND ONLY 30 seconds in😂😂😂😳🫣👆🫡💪🤝🇺🇸👏👏👏👏

very cool!
Love this 👌👌
Love it when people go a different path, would have been so easy to cozzie it but going lexus v8 is tasty as fk, might be reliable now to 😂
😂
Constantly looking out for the old bill🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
You know it pulls hard when the passenger is gritting his teeth under acceleration
The gearbox ratios seem to suit it well
3.6 on the diff.
Love a V8 sound Ace 👍🏻
This man is the doppelganger of Alan of The Skid Factory channel.

Really wish Jeffery would take a few minutes to adjust his Harness correctly on test rides...
