DESCRIPTION
Surely one of the motor industries best kept secrets, the Sierra Cosworth Road Sport was an affordable, high performance saloon with lower production numbers than its Sapphire and 4x4 cousins. Despite motorsport being in its DNA, the RS Cosworth is versatile and usable and these cars are swiftly becoming collectors pieces with values climbing accordingly. The result of a Ford Motorsport project aimed at producing a winning European group A car, the RS is equipped with a YBB 16 valve, twin cam engine with the road going version producing around 204bhp. This power was transmitted through a Mustang 5 speed gearbox and the suspension, chassis and aerodynamics were all developed using race technology. The commitment to creating a legitimate, race winning car is evident in the bodywork and styling, with the large rear wing designed to ensure stability at speeds in excess of 300km/h and the openings between the headlights creating a good airflow to the intercooler.
First registered in 1986, this LHD example, offered in Moonstone blue with a matching deep blue interior, has been very well maintained as is evident from its super condition.
Showing just 112,000kms (approx. 69,500 miles) overall, the car appears to be very original and untouched and even retains its original exhaust system. The vehicle comes with a great history file showing all its manuals and a great service history as detailed below, indicating that it has had a recent extensive service and that the Cambelts have been replaced in the last 12 months.
