Default 4x4 saph cossie one owner from new

Just pulled this in today, one owner from new saph cossie.

Bought brand new from Dagenham motors in Uxbridge in 1992, the actual car that was meant for him was stolen off the forecourt as it came off the back of the lorry the day before he was due to collect. So they quickly got another one in for him overnight.

It's completely standard, never been crashed, all original paint.
Even on its standard cat exhaust system. And not even chipped.

It's got a near perfect rainbow cloth interior.

Here's a few pics

Looks nice that Jim.

Is the completely white spoiler how it came from Ford?

See them now and again like that, but I just assumed it was people adding their own touch? Personally I prefare the black lip...

What's the plans then?

It's original, late models spoilers were like that.

Nice example!

Pretty sure the very last of the Saphs had the black tip painted body colour and a massive steering wheel.
That is a lovely saph in the pics,looks well cared for and original.

That's a lovely looking car - bet it drives as good as it looks.

Mine has the colour coded tip on spoiler and is a May 93 car on a K plate.

My old white saph cossie was a 92 J reg and had the painted spoiler lip from factory.

Exactly what mine looked like and same interior too, mine had a rs accessories steering wheel, regretted selling that car.
