► Summary
A car still worth recommending, especially in the version with a motor 1.6. The disadvantage is the high fuel consumption of the units 2.0 i 2.9 V6. The market presence of much newer vehicles makes, that Sierra gets low prices. This allows you to buy a big one, comfortable car for little money.
