I fully agree! Why did they bother attaching the XR4i logo to the mk2? It was a boggo 5dr mk2 Sierra RWD hatch, with a 2 litre twin cam engine - that only made 125bhp and was slow as fuck Should have called it the Sierra "Special"

Seriously tho, it shared nothing akin with the previous XR4i's, other than it was RWD, which all Sierra's were (except the 4x4's obviously). The XR4x4 was a continuation of the original XR4i in as far as taking it's 2.8 V6 lump, then evolving it into the 2.9.... 4x4 was added to "improve" on the 4i's original set up....

The mk2 4i was a waste of space and only a marketing exercise really.... And it didn't really sell that much so a bit of a wasted marketing exercise IMO......
