Extensive history file including MOT certificates, service stamps, and invoices spanning the car's entire life
First registered in January 1987 at Alexanders of Edinburgh
Recently serviced and MOT tested in May 2026
The Appeal
Competing for bedroom wall poster space with the Countach and Testarossa, the Ford Sierra RS Cosworth was the blue-collar performance car of the 1980s, and they're just as desirable four decades on. With its distinctive whale-tail spoiler and Cosworth-developed turbocharged engine, it earned legendary status on both road and rally stage. Moonstone Blue is among the more desirable colours for the model, and this example presents as a well-preserved survivor with just 43,503 miles recorded.
The car's history file is notably comprehensive, with a service record that begins with the pre-delivery inspection on the day of first registration. The vendor describes the interior as being in unusually well-kept condition, with the original radio still in place. Mechanically, the suspension has been polybushed throughout, while new brake discs, pads, and freshly replated callipers have been fitted.
In May 2026, the car received an interim service and passed its MOT without issue.DSC09752-3.jpg14.09 MB
