Default Swartz black 4x4 cosworth

I’m thinking of selling my sapphire 4x4 cosworth. I have been thinking of selling for a couple of weeks now as the reason is its time to buy a house but keep backing out as I really do love this car. But I know want to get on the ladder to owning my own house


1991 j reg
Swartz gloss black
MOT till 04/10/2014
Tax until 30/11/2013
86000 miles
All old Mots to back up the mileage.
All old tax discs
17" rs 7 spoke diamonds in mint condition with original receipt
New avon zz3 tyres around
Come with original bill of sale and special order colour receipt
4 previous owners but should be 3
Stainless exhaust
Stage 1 Chip
Plenty of shiny bling under bonnet
Leather recaro interior in mint condition
Spec r dump valve
Cat 1 alarm Clifford concept 650
Polybushed all round
All electrics work
Alpine cd head unit
£2000 of jl audio subs and component speakers
Pro install !!!!
The car has never been welded
Private plate is not included

Bad bits
Small mark on n/s front wing due to indicator coming out on motorway and swinging around hitting
The car has had paint but I believe still has all original panels
The car is due a cam belt
Rear arches IMO have started to show signs of talc needed but have
Been done before to a good standard but I'm picky

Now in my opinion this is not concourse but a very honest useable car. It’s not really given me any problems. It did start to have the odd little noisey tappet but
I fitted all new set now she purrrrs like a kitten

I have been as honest as I can with this ad.

Any questions please ask

all pics are recent but I can take pics of anything on request.

Still not sure I have made the right decision

I will only be advertising the car here as I am not desperate to sell.

Cheers contact dean on 07837 276 619 located in Hertfordshire

I think if you could afford to keep it, just store it mate. Even if you don't want to drive it this will be an investment for the future, especially with it being in a rare colour. Just my thoughts.

Missed taking a ford to shows for over 10 years

How odd. Must be the code for it then. Because I assume it was German made and the German word for black is Schwartz, as in Schwartzkopf.

But why anyone would want to call their company 'Blackhead' I don't know.

Lovely look car mate all the same. That leather looks in excellent nick too.

Wow it's good to see one of my old cars still in such great condition even though it looks nothing like how it was when I bought it lol, she was totally standard and the main reason it was sold was it was to clean to use every day and I didn't want it getting marked or dented in car parks.

Lol it was a great car and I know how silly it sounds to sell a car that's to good but as we didn't have a garage for it to live in and got used daily it seamed right to pass it on and Paul bought the car from us the first week I advertised it and said to us at the time he drove a couple of others for a couple of grand more and that was the best hence why he bought it and we saw him a couple of time at shows and it was nice it see it modified tastefully.

You say it's had paint,I remember the guy I bought it from had either a front wing or door painted and wing mirror as one night some cunt hung a shopping trolley on the mirror and damaged the paint work. I think I'm right in thinking he gave it to fords to paint as I know he was super fussy and after that it lived in his garage.
