Offered here is a 1988 Ford RS Turbo presented in Mercury Grey with lovely original specification interior seats which were new in 2021. This example has been tastefully modified, sporting a Cosworth Turbo and benefits from an engine remap.
It was treated to an engine out respray in 2019 / 2020, which looks superb, and is very presentable under the bonnet. There are a few minor scuffs on the passenger side front wheel arch and some cracks on the rear spoiler. Overall it is in tidy condition for a car of this age and has evidently had a lot of money spent on it.
It is pleasing to see that this example has an uncut parcel shelf and uncracked dashboard - a rarity these days on these models. This one is fantastic fun to drive and won't fail to put a smile on your face. Go on, treat yourself and relive your youth with this well-sorted RS Turbo.
PLEASE NOTE: This example has been subject to a speedo change in 2020 changing from 18, 000 (118, 000) to 96, 000.
