i've listed it on ebay and it reached £3600 but i am not prepared to let it go for that! my original price was £4500 but i am offering it to passionford members for £3800 no offers.
she's a 1990 H plate sierra sapphire RS Cosworth 4x4
moonstone blue in color
full black Recaro leather interior (no rips or tears but as usual the leather on the drivers bolster is faded with a few cracks)
129k miles
4 months MOT
5 months road tax
ford history to 90k
9 keepers from new
HPI clear with gold report (done when i bought the car)
log book present and registred to myself
loads and loads of various different receipts from over the years
the previous owner told me it had a rebuild at 90k but i have no paperwork to prove this
in the last 8 weeks i have done loads of work to her consisting of...
Full service
cam belt change
new (but second hand) bottom crankshaft pulley
camshaft (halfmoon) oil seals and rocker cover gasket changed
new 3 core polished alloy radiator
new polished alloy RS500 spec intercooler
new braided oil feed hose
new vented, drilled and grooved OMP discs and pads
new (but second hand) water pump and gasket
recon T3 turbo just fitted last week
i have all the receipts for all the new parts i bought (and 1 or 2 members on here can vouch for the work too)
mods...
3 bar map sensor
Bosch 803 dark green injectors
-31 actuator
stage 3 chip (unsure of make/model as stage 3 was done when i bought it)
multi layer headgasket
swirl pot
uprated clutch
Bailey twin piston dump valve
PiperX monster induction kit
blue samco boost hoses
turbo back 4" stainless steel system with single outward rolled tip (has 2 centre sections so it isn't too loud and gives a nice rumble)
Vibratech groupA engine mounts
polished alloy header tank
polished alloy power steering reservoir
polished alloy brake fluid reservoir (cover)
polished alloy fuse box cover
polished coil cover
polished s/s battery cover with "cosworth" lazer cut out of it and light blue leather underneath which is what you see when you read "cosworth"
moonstone blue OMP front strut brace
braided swirl pot to header tank feed
GAZ coilover suspension
17" BK racing alloys with custom "cosworth" centre caps
De-badged and meshed grille.. (standard grille comes with the car as a spare)
smoked square side repeaters
4x4 badges removed from wings
centre heater vent removed to house 3 gauge holder
plasma blue autogauge, boost gauge
plasma blue autogauge, volt gauge
plasma blue autogauge, oil pressure gauge
stainless steel dial kit with plasma blue backing (to match gauges when lights are switched on) t
5w bulbs in clocks instead of 3w to make them brighter
fans on an overide switch on centre console aswell as still being activated by original harness
flamer kit switch on centre console for terrifying tailgaters
RS Cosworth sill protectors
cat 1 alarm
cat 1 immob
multilock
second immob
headunit is not included in the sale as i've only just bought it
the idle valve is unplugged due to sticking at 1200rpm once car is warmed up but it idles at 800rpm with it unplugged so i havent been in a hurry to replace it
the car has had a very light bump when it was owned by a former keeper as there is a very small crease on the offside inner wing and the strip of metal that goes under the headlights and grille is not the original on (the only reason i know this is because when you take the headlights out you can see the original color is red, i'll take some pics of the crease and the strip tomorrow and post them)
there is a tiny bit of rust on both rear arches and a few little dings and scratches around the car (you need to be inspecting it closely to see them)
here's some pictures, i'll get some more of the engine bay, boot and more of the outside and inside tomorrow when i go to the lockup

yes it's a reliable runner mate, but i'm a "better safe than sorry" nut anyway so all the work that has been done was only done for peace of mind. there's no whining and the engine is quiet and smooth. the last time it was rolling roaded it saw 319bhp but that was before the RS500 intercooler was fitted so i estimate around 330bhp now...
PM sent with my phone number if you require anymore info.

I'm 35 mate, I left in 1988, lived in Chapel park all of my life before moving to Exeter.
I have to say some of the best fun I have had was working from the West End nick at the height of the twocs. I think its a lot quiter around there now.

there's a chap coming to view it tomorrow mate, and if he doesnt buy it it's getting broke on sunday. already got the interior, engine and alot of the engine mods sold which is gonna give me nigh on 3k.
i've been messed about so much with people who ring, arrange to come and don't bother turning up that this lad coming tomorrow is the last person who i am going to let view it (if he turns up)
i'll be able to let you know by tomorrow night whats happening.

Pity
But if you've got 3k already then makes sense suppose.
I couldn't pay for a flight over without seeing the other pics I asked about. Stupid Irish sea

well it's still in one piece, but it's getting stripped tomorrow cos it's my last day off work for 10 days so i have to do it tomorrow to get the parts off.
the only thing that would stop that would be a deposit through paypal.
out of the 50+ people who have been interested in it only 2 have came to view. one lad was only 19 and his dad wouldnt let him pay 4k insurance and the other was an idiot!
