  • This is the glamorous launch film from 1988 for the Sierra Sapphire Cosworth, the high-speed flagship of the facelifted Ford Sierra range. With a top speed of over 150 mph, and a 0-60 time of 6.1 seconds, this was the latest in a long line of high speed Fords. Delivering near-supercar performance and real excitement at sensible prices, the car is now highly sought after by enthusiasts.

    The Sapphire Cosworth and the Lotus Carlton were the two for me. What a time to witness and experience these cars.

      It makes the car look good! Quite a common technique in TV advertising (certainly at the time) (not that its a bad looking car to start with) The end shot of the Sierra going into what appears to be a stone barn or something (or even "The Great Pyramid of Dagenham") is quite atmospheric. It just disappears. Maybe its not that deep but the driver drives towards the end of the building and switches the lights off just at the point of stopping giving the illusion that the car just drives on into darkness.
