Description
Signature Classics are proud to present this exceptional Ford Fiesta RS Turbo, a superbly presented and highly usable example of one of the most iconic hot hatches of the early 1990s.
Showing just 32, 000 miles from new, this remarkable car stands out immediately for its condition and presence. Professionally restored approximately 10 years ago and having covered just 1, 000 miles since, it remains in outstanding order throughout — a level of presentation rarely seen on today’s market.
Following recent inspection, it has been confirmed that the car benefits from a 1. 8 bottom-end conversion, a well-known and widely respected upgrade using components typically sourced from models such as the Ford Sierra and Ford Escort. This modification was commonly carried out to improve strength, reliability, and torque over the standard 1. 6 setup, making the car far better suited to modern driving conditions.
As a result, while no longer a factory-original, collector-grade example, this RS Turbo instead represents a high-quality fast road car — one that can be confidently driven and enjoyed, without compromising the character that makes these cars so special.
The quality of this example is evident throughout. The exterior presents sharply, the interior is clean and well cared for, and the car has clearly benefited from careful ownership and ongoing maintenance.
Further enhancements include a larger upgraded intercooler, addressing the well-documented cooling limitations of standard cars and further improving usability.
Accompanying the vehicle is an extensive history file, including a wealth of receipts and supporting documentation, demonstrating the level of care, attention, and investment it has received over the years.
The RS Turbo remains one of Ford’s most celebrated performance models, and finding an example with this mileage, this level of condition, and this degree of usability is increasingly difficult. While originality defines the very top end of the market, well-executed, sympathetically upgraded cars such as this occupy a highly desirable space for enthusiasts who value both condition and drivability.
This is not a project or average example — it is a standout car, offering an excellent balance between presentation, performance, and real-world usability.
