Sierra Cosworth Spares/Repairs 1989 For Sale

Its a G reg 1989 registered sierra rs cosworth 2wd sold for Spares/ Repairs

It is a complete car everything is there - i have not removed anything since it was on the road, its last MOT expired feb 2016. It has spent the last few years in a temperature controlled garage, coming out on the 31/ 05/ 19 and that is when the current pictures were taken. It was started up occasionally throughout its storage span just to keep some form of life in it.

The current mileage reads 96k with the online MOT history starting in '06 on 69k

The dash is in good condition and the digital display showing door and light information works.

The door cards had trims from a different model glued on and whilst the trims have since come off and are included with the car, the blobs of glue remain.

It has had welding jobs on its underside prior to my ownership and unfortunatley it needs a fair bit more, the floor pans and one chassis leg at the rear are the worst areas

The seats are usable with no major wear or damage, the rears are good too. The carpet looks heavily stained around the passenger front area, i'm sure there would be a way to save it. It has oil pressure and boost dials fitted above the radio, they work ok, its been a few years since i drove it properly but i'm sure it ran at 1. 5 bar boost

The car is delocked and has non genuine wheels, they are in good condition as are the tyres, they all hold air as they should and have legal tread. The car is lowered, i'm unsure of brand or method but it drove and handled very well.

There is some history that comes with the car including many tax disks from 2000 onwards. There is some receipts for parts purchased and a couple of previous MOT certificates. Sadly there is no service history although there is a sierra owners manual with it.

The engine is not standard, the original air box is gone and there is a cone filter, the belt cover is gone too. There are some receipts for engine parts purchased and there is hand written notes of what was done to the car - a previous owner tracked a previous owner and wrote a letter asking for information on what was done to it and the letter was returned with new notes on the back, these include some extensive work;

lightly ported inlet ports
8:1 accralite forged pistons on a 205 long block re-bored to 2150cc
New mains and big end shells
Sodium coated valves and guides
New petrol tank and fuel pump
Kevlar timing belt
RS500 intercooler

Theres lots more but that is the bulk of it, the details are there for the garage who did the work, if you so wanted I'm sure you could track them down, some of the parts mentioned have corresponding receipts.

The car pulled like it was far from standard i have no idea on official bhp but in the notes it claims around 340.

The car has had a respray at some point - its not that bad of a finish although its starting to bubble lightly in a few places.

There is a few oil leaks on the car, if left running for a few mins a few of drips will appear. The oil was checked regularly and never ran low. It was only ran on supreme in my ownership and not driven hard when cold.

The speedo doesn't register the speed, as a result the mileage did not change in my ownership, judging by the mot history it seems a fairly recent issue.

Typically since i've got the car home it doesnt want to start, I'm hoping it's just fuel, i will get some in it and update the advert soon, just at the moment though it is a non runner. When it did run it sounded good from cold and on tickover, once warmed up however it developed a tappy knocky sound, could be nothing could be something i'd rather be as honest as i can though.

Full V5 in my name with 7 previous keepers.
