Developed by Ford and Tickford for Group A homologation, the Sierra RS500 Cosworth is among the most sought-after Performance Fords of the 1980s, with this example being build number 462 and chassis number #38958
Finished in Moonstone Blue, one of only 52 produced in this colour, the car is presented in notably good condition with strong paintwork, excellent panel fit, original wheels and a well-preserved interior featuring an uncracked dashboard and original audio equipment
Powered by the original YBD Cosworth turbocharged engine numbered YBD0155, paired with a manual gearbox, the car is described as performing well with strong power delivery and has covered just over 62,000 miles

Formerly an ex-Big Power feature car and understood to have once belonged to Adrian Newe...
