Ford Escort Rs Cosworth (U288)

Sold
Vehicle Description
A superb early example with less than 58,000 miles on the clock, extensively restored.

This 1992 Ford Escort Cosworth Luxury is one of 2,500 early big turbo cars presented for sale with less than 58,000 miles on the clock out of a large private collection. The car has done very few miles in its previous ownership and has been kept in a dry climate storage facility.

The bodywork, finished in Diamond White, is in excellent condition throughout. The car has been recently recommissioned, and an underbody restoration was completed to a pristine condition. The exterior trim and badges are all in excellent condition as well as the original wheels and recently replaced tyres.

The interior presents as well as the outside showing little signs of wear. With the Luxury specification optioned for, the interior includes cloth hexagonal Recaro seats which show no sagging or tears; tilt-or-slide sunroof; electrically operated front windows; opening rear quarter vents; original radio and 10CD changer. The interior trim, headlining and carpets are also in excellent condition.

The engine bay presents as equally impressive as the rest of the car. The entire bay has been meticulously detailed with the slam panel and strut tops in remarkable condition. All identity tags are present and correct.

Mechanically, the car is in full working order and during our test drive upon arrival we were very impressed with the overall drivability. There are a few modifications to the engine including a conical air filter with silicone hose and a carbon fibre cambelt cover. In our opinion these do not detract from the look and style of the car but add increased breathability and performance.

Accompanying the car is the private registration K900 SSY along with a number of invoices and mot certificates.

As with all our cars, the Escort Cosworth will be provided with 12 months MOT and a service before handover. If this car looks and sounds like the car for you, a trip to see us is well worth the visit – “Our coffee pot is always hot”.
