Introduced in 1988, the Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth combined Ford’s turbocharged Cosworth performance with a more discreet four-door saloon body, offering a different character to the earlier three-door model
Finished in Moonstone Blue with Raven Black leather upholstery, this notably original example retains its factory radio and amplifier and remains close to original specification throughout
Powered by the 1, 993cc Cosworth twin-cam turbocharged engine driving through a manual gearbox, this two-wheel drive example has covered 74, 268 miles from new
With the exception of an aftermarket exhaust system, the car is described as remaining as it left the factory, preserving much of its original character and specification
Registered on 28th March 1990, this Sapphire RS Cosworth has had just two registered owners, the most recent retaining the car since 1993, and it has recently benefited from recommissioning, a full service and cambelt change following a period off the road since 2019
A well-kept and lightly recommissioned example, this two-owner Sapphire Cosworth would make an appealing addition to a collection of Performance Fords or an enjoyable modern classic for regular use
