1991 Ford Fiesta RS Turbo

SOLD

Brief

A true rarity now, an original, Low mileage, Fiesta RS Turbo.

29,800 genuine miles.
Totally Original.
Very nice history file.
Zero corrosion.
All original paintwork and panels.
This is a very rare chance to secure, what must be best original example currently on the market.
So often these little pocket rockets had large modifications carried out, or were crashed or even stolen and burnt out, making cars like this almost impossible to find. A true Ford RS investment, with values set to rise dramatically over the coming months/years.

History

A fantastic history file accompanies this vehicle as you would expect.

Many old MOT’s, and service stamps warrant the extremely low mileage.
A pile of invoices also show that the car was truly cherished by its only owner, with everything from service bills to a receipt for a bulb.
Original booklets are present,  including the service booklet of course.
The original binder for the booklets is present.

Body & Paintwork

The original bodywork is in very good order indeed, as can be seen from the pictures.

No corrosion on the car at all (anywhere), not even a tiny bubble, demonstrating that the car has only ever seen dry conditions, and it has in fact been garaged its entire life.

The paintwork is still in great condition, with a great shine throughout.
Completely free of any car parking dents, only a small mark on the leading edge of the front bumper which is barely visible at all and does not detract from the car.

The car looks truly stunning, and receives many compliments when out on the road.

All glass is scratch free, badges are all original and as they came from factory.

Only a few small touch ups on the bonnet, and these do not detract from the fantastic original condition of this car.
These cars do not appear on the market in this condition very often at all.

The only non original item on the car is the exhaust, and the original is supplied with the car.

Interior & Trim

The interior in this car is simply fantastic in terms of condition.

Original seats, which are extremely comfortable and still retain the full original shape, with no deterioration to the bolsters at all.
Original steering wheel is without any marks or damage, and looks fantastic, especially with the little ‘Turbo’ logo in the centre, it reminds you that you are driving something a little bit special.

Dashboard is again, as new, with no damage, no holes from old telephones or anything nasty at all.
The gearknob has a couple of very small defects, but this is being extremely fussy and does not detract from the car in any way at all.
A fantastic place to be.

Engine

Of course, this car runs superbly well.

Starts with the first turn of the key, and idle remains perfectly smooth even when cold.

An absolute pleasure to drive, and still a nippy car even by todays standards.
No unwanted noises from the engine or gearbox, in fact it runs extremely quietly.
No smoking, either on start up, on boost or on overrun, it drives exactly as Ford intended.

The engine bay is extremely well presented, and again, totally standard without any modifications or anything having ever been painted, it is exactly as it came from the factory.

Running Gear

As can be seen in the underside pictures, this car is in fantastic order underneath, and this includes all running gear.

Original suspension is without fault, and still retains the original stickers and marking on the suspension legs and rear shock absorbers/springs.
Brakes work just as they should do, and the car rides/drives exactly as it should do.
A very fun car to drive and surprisingly agile, it certainly puts a grin on your face.
