giganto 1 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Starting in 2018, the first generation of Mondeos will be able to be imported without the DOT and EPA crushing them into cubes. So I'm planning a little vacation to europe to get the diesel fastback Mondeo I've always wanted, or maybe a wagon...whichever is less rusty. I'll be on the continent to get a left-hand-drive, so I'll have a language barrier rather than have to get a job at the post office. I wonder if I should rebadge it as a Contour in case the police notice it? Anyway, what unavailable cars do you desire? A diesel Toyota Hilux? A japanese Kei car? One of the original Ford Transit vans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XtraGassy 0 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Two month old post with no replies, but I'll bite. I would like a Lancia Delta HF Integrale. I'm not too particular about the Integrale trim, but I want one with a 2.0L turbo, a 5-speed, and AWD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96_concept_GL 0 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Land Rover Defender. I lived in the UK for 3 years and these were the most fun RHD vehicles I was around, by far. Being military, there were plenty of Skylines, BMWs and other toys around but the Defender owns my respect. While I was there, I sampled the local driving experience by owning a few cars and a bike. '99 Citroen Saxo, '01 Rover 600, and a '97 BMW 328i. I'll never own a French car again. Rover went to hell when they started selling Hondas and after that starter experience with the Bimmer, my driveway will always have a roundel.

SqueetVT 1 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Im with Demon on this one, anything with a Cosworth YB 200 Block is it for me. Then of course if money is no object, you could always pick up the Audi Quattro Sport. A cossie sounds the most aggressive for all 4 cyl turbo applications, but that 5 cyl audi is another animal. That Lancia Delta was amazing too, shittt Id take all 3 hahahah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondeoman 32 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 The Sierra XR4i is an automobile from Ford, with rear wheel drive, a front positioned engine and a saloon (sedan) body style. It's powered courtesy of a naturally aspirated engine of 2.8 litre capacity. This power plant features overhead valve valve gear, a 60 degree V 6 cylinder layout, and 2 valves per cylinder. It produces 160 bhp (162 PS/119 kW) of power at 5700 rpm, and maximum torque of 216 N·m (159 lb·ft/22 kgm) at 4300 rpm. A 5 speed manual transmission transmits the power to the driven wheels. Maximum speed quoted is 209 km/h (130 mph). Seen occasionally in the States as a Merkur XR4Ti which is similar, but the main difference is the Merkur came with a 4 cylinder 2.3 Turbo engine. We can thank Ford VP Bob Lutz for bring the Merkur to the US Market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
