Here's my realistic suggestion of how this will pan out:
It's going to be a tired AF 140k mile Ford with questionable build quality, so maybe not a shed inside if it's been looked after, but if it's not had high levels of maintenance everything that's supposed to make it comfortable, will no longer be doing its job.
If the engine hasn't been abused then it will probably offer a few thousand miles of abuse before shitting the bed.
I have no experience of those particular cars, but I'm just going with my personal experience of many different 90s cars, and also growing up in Essex where every Sierra had blue smoke pouring out of it, even N/A ones.
If you just want a few months of LOLs then throw it in a garage to rot or spend a tonne of cash on it, then you'll be laughing. If you think you're going to get an even semi-reliable performance saloon, then I think you're going to be disappointed.
