SUMMARY
A beautifully finished example of the driver-focused Series 1 RS Turbo.
DESCRIPTION
- Finished in its original colour of Diamond White with a grey cloth Recaro interior
- Restored some years ago and in a private Collection since
- Purchased by our vendor fairly recently, however the car simply wasn't up to his fastidious standards and consequently needed further investment to return it to absolutely top form
- Mechanically it now benefits from a new turbo, intercooler, fuel pump and filters, rebuilt fuel metering unit, fresh cambelt, air filter and plugs etc.
- A new fuel tank has been fitted as has a complete new lock set with keys
- The body-kit has been professionally refitted and painted
- The Recaro seats have been refurbished with new bolster and foams and the floor carpet has been replaced
- Supplied with a comprehensive history file, including the invoices for all the recent work, and a fresh 12-month MOT (No Advisories)
- This is a fabulous example of a desirable Performance Ford and a credit to our vendor
