Lot 37
A 1987 Ford Sierra RS Cosworth, registration number D290 WTN, white. In the mid 1980s Ford resumed their affiliation with Cosworth to create one of the most collectable and desired hot Fords of all time. Based on the XR4i three door body shell, they were constructed at the Genk plant in Belgium, power was supplied by a 1993cc Pinto four cylinder block with forged steel crankshaft and con rods, topped via a Cosworth developed 16 valve twin cam cylinder head fed by a Garrett AiResearch turbo charger, developing 204 bhp and performance figures of 0-60 in 6 seconds and top speed of 145 mph. It goes without saying that all standard underpinnings and running gear were comprehensively uprated to cope with all the extra performance. Registered in the last year of production, this Cosworth has been cherished by its owners and is presented in original condition. Finished in white with a standard grey interior, our vendor advises us that the Ford has not been involved in any accidents and still retains all of its original body panels, interior, engine and running gear. The Cosworth has always been garaged and is said to run just as Ford intended with exhilarating acceleration and handling. There is a comprehensive history file accompanying the Cosworth with numerous receipts, past MOTs, brochures and handbooks. The Sierra RS Cosworth has always been a coveted car. Today they are much sought after with collectors and enthusiasts, especially when unmolested and original condition as this car is. V5C, *** MOT to September 2018 ***
Estimate £25, 000-28, 000 + 12% Buyers premium (including 20% VAT)
