Default Sierra Sapphire cosworth 4x4

FOR SALE

My 1990 H-Reg Sierra Sapphire Cosworth 4x4

Moonstone Blue
Black leather interior (genuine Rouse sport front seats)
Stage 3 Remap
Green injectors
Pro Alloy RS500 intercooler
Turbo Technics T34 turbocharger (brand new wastegate)
Group A head gasket
Silicone hoses
Full magnex stainless exhaust system
GGR dump valve
GGR induction kit
Focus RS 18" wheels in gunmetal
4x Yokohama Parada Spec 2 tyres
Comp b4 large brake kit (alloy callipers)
Completely de-locked
78000 miles with loads of old MOTs to back up
alarm/immobiliser
Much more

The car was written off early in its life (1992) but was apparently rebuilt with a brand new body shell from Ford and for that reason it is registered in 1998 but put on an age related plate (h-reg). The shell is completely rust free and very straight. The engine runs very well and was recently dyno'd at Noble motorsport at chesterfield who diagnosed a faulty wastegate (hence the brand new Motorsport Development wastegate).

Bad Points-

Few stone chips across front
2 wheels slight curbing
2 door cards starting to peel
Lower dash trim cracked
Drivers seat side squab showing signs of wear but no tears
heater blower only works on 1 and 2
remote boot actuator not working (have a new one to fit, but not done as yet)
Think thats about all??

I will amend the ad as i remember things


I took this car in P/x for my TVR in october last year but have decided to sell as my other half refuses to drive it because she says it scares her . If i had the room i would definitely keep it but unfortunately it has to go to make way for something she will drive.

£8500 o.n.o
May take p/x? for something like BMW M3, classic ford, chevette, porsche boxster in fact will consider most things?? Try me, i may surprise you (after running it past the other half of course)
07989 677452
Thanks for looking
Paul

So in theory you could put this on an S-plate?

I cannot see why not although the date registered would put it as an R plate. This is what the V5 says-

Its a cracking car Glenn, but once my missus has made her mind up about something there is no changing it!! She won't even go out as a passenger in it


Also i have found out that it wasn't written off, it was stolen recovered in 1992??

did see that,


what a price marsie 9k for a resehelled one, result with the sale, seems even sapphire prices are getting silly now.



as in just a few days of being in the new owner hands its gone up in value!

new owner seems to want 9850 then 10k cash in his add, mentions the reshelled , but nothing about the recored stolen recoved bit being on Vcar
