Ford Cortina Mk5 vs Sierra Sapphire - Blue Oval Family Favourites!

Video Description

In this video, Phil gets behind the wheel of two iconic Fords from different eras — the MK5 Ford Cortina and the Ford Sierra Sapphire — to see how they stack up against each other. The Cortina, a staple of British roads in the '70s, was eventually succeeded by the Sierra, a car that ushered in a more aerodynamic design for Ford in the '80s. But which one still feels like the better drive today? Does the Cortina's old-school charm trump the Sierra's more modern approach, or did Ford genuinely improve the formula? Phil dives into the driving dynamics, design quirks, and nostalgia factor of both cars to find out.
