The photo is quite old & I haven't seen the car around for a while. I expect it's exempt though.

I see this regularly, & know the owner
(not seen them for a few years though)
Underneath all the foliage, there’s a Sierra
I think something like a 2.0S?

It's been rather windy this year though. You can't take a sierra out in the wind.
That is only half joking, I used to have to drive a pool car that was a sierra sometimes, and I have never known any other car be as badly affected by cross winds.

Mk 2 'facelift'?

Agreed in hindsight! MK1 had square headlights!

Mk1.5 propeller face lift. The Mk2 was a lot squarer and ran different engine/trans.
The wheels, bumper and wing badge give it away but it's a V6.

I quite like that. Not sure about the diesel engine but it's a fun take on a rat rod.

I know who Keith Urban is
And, the 'Blame it All On My Roots' is a line from a Garth Brooks song; "Friends In Low Places'

I always think of Ferrari’s as simply ‘fast FIATs’ anyway

Our son in law often (almost always) drives the pool car, one of these.
He's had some unusual cars, Ford Probes, a 320 bhp Imprezza etc etc. He loves driving the Smart, goes like a little go-kart.

I'm reminded of sitting in traffic when the Mondeo first came out. I was sat stationary as one pulled alongside...and I the next lane was a Sierra. The look, windscreen and bonnet lines /angles were extremely similar. The Mondeo looked every inch an evolution of the Sierra.,
Mk1 Mondeo's, didn't they have a sort of elongated narrow rounded edge headlamp? Colleague of mine had an M reg one iirc.
