Hi Guys,especially all the Sierra lovers Out there here is a review of my recently acquired possesion The TATA SIERRA TURBO 99.

driveability:
On starting the starter motor was spining and the engine took it up on the fourth time with a rumble and yes there was black smoke ( the owner has left it aside for a long time). took it for a drive the pick up was good than all the other turbos i drove but the cluth was very hard and the power steering was like a manual one breaking good
