The Sterling 825/827: Remembered for Character, Not Looks, Speed or Price

Car and Driver has turned its attention to the Sterling 825 and 827 from the 1987 through 1991 model years. The case it makes for them doesn't rest on looks, pace or price tag. The writer's affection goes instead to cars that came out with a stubborn personality of their own and never gave it up. For owners and collectors who keep a soft spot for the unusual over the obvious, the Sterling earns its place on that list. The cars people remember longest are often the ones that refused to blend in.
