Description

Description Super cool and super rare 2.5 V6 Probe with manual transmission showing just 69,594 miles with lovely tan leather on offer from a deceased estate; complete with some useful spares

First registered in January 2001, this fast Ford left the factory in a well specd gise, fitted with AC, electric seats, sunroof and cruise control, as well as a punchy 2.5-Litre V6 producing 164Bhp, getting sent to the rear wheels via 5-speed manual transmission, with an excellent exhaust note.

The attractive tan leather interior compliments the Metallic exterior wonderfully, the paintowrk is showing some signs of age as pictured, but on the whole this probe looks to be most attractive.

Coming with a large histroy folder, it dates back to August 1996 when we can see it received its 10,000 mile service by Corner Ford in Coventry, other invoices include new front callipers in 2017, a new exhaust and gaskets in April 2019, and most recently we can see an invoice from Westbrooke Automotive in April...
