Best way is emailing me, as I work long hours and am not able to make long phone calls.
Up for sale is my 1986 1.4 (5 speed) Ford Fiesta Ghia.
The car benefits from a 5 speed gearbox due to having a CVH engine fitted from the factory at extra cost. CVHs in non XR spec MK2’s are rare. The 1.4 is 75bhp as standard with a book top speed of 101mph, which means it will sit at 70-80mph on the motorway all day long whilst still returning roughly 40mpg. The car is surprisingly quick for what it is.
The reason this is up for sale is that I am looking to buy a MK2 XR2 or MK3 RS Turbo/
Viewing is encouraged, as I am not willing to accept an offer over the phone/email/PM. I would prefer anyone interested to view the car and then make an offer. I have put the price up as nearest offer but I have a price that I won’t go below and its not far off what it is advertised for. The car is in Suffolk, but I live in Hertfordshire. I will travel back to Suffolk for viewings. For security reasons viewings won’t be held where the car is stored.
Wheels:
13x6J RS Snowflakes
Correct ghia wheel bolts
165/55/13 tyres all round.
Suspension:
Standard shocks which are currently fitted with 50mm springs.
Adjustable panhard rod (less than 3 months old)
Engine:
Omex Rev limiter and launch control (button mounted on dash)
K&N filter
4-2-1 heat wrapped exhaust manifold
Mild steel XR2 exhaust
Chrome rocker cover
Chrome Strut tops.
Interior:
General age related wear and tear, but nothing major. Not tears on the seats. It is all standard apart from an XR2 steering wheel which is a good upgrade over the flimsy standard wheel. Being a ghia it benefits from a high spec dash, which includes a rev counter. It also has a standard roof mounted clock and velour seats as standard.
Exterior:
Standard and all the original chrome is there as if left the factory apart from the front bumper which is missing its chrome.
The headlights currently have yellow tinted bulbs, which are brighter than standard bulbs as well as giving a yellow euro look.
Body work
General dents and dinks, but nothing major apart from a dent by the passengers rear window. Done by an elderly previous owner (no idea how they managed it!?!)
The bonnet has some rust along the front lip
Small amount of rust on the bottom of the passenger’s door.
Passengers side boot floor corner is rusty. Wasn’t an issue on the last mot, more cosmetic.
