Yep, they did do the Sierra XR4i that I think had a V6 engine I believe, it's a tough kit to come by. It's known as the Merkur here in the US

they appear on e-bay occasionaly, they are fairly easy to find if you look for a while. i dont know what the engine is like, i've never seen very good pics of the model engine. but i think a rally car like this with the V-6 would be cool. i would buy an XR4i but i'm skint, actually im in debt due to my model buying.

Yes the Tamiya Ford Sierra XR4i is full detail with an excellent 2.8 V6 under the bonnet with most ancilliaries too. All suspension is accurate too. Also in the box is a left- or right-hand drive dash, useful for modifying that RS500... Nice kit all in all.

Does anybody here have a spare right hand dash for the Sierra. I have one Aussie and one BTCC touring car to build and need rh dashboards.

TIA
