- Unique 4x4 road car with just c.924 miles from build, unregistered example
- Red with Grey cloth, 360bhp turbo engine, seam welded shell
- Built for Dave Brodie of Brodie Brittain Racing fame utilising Ford Motorsport shell
This unique and desirable fast Ford was built for the personal use of David Brodie of renowned tuners Brodie Brittain Racing (BBR). It was constructed from a brand new Ford Motorsport shell on which the seams had first been welded and the cavities foam filled. It was treated to a full RS500 bodykit save for the lower of the two rear wings. All the mechanicals were new, and the 2.0-litre turbo engine equipped with a BBR gas-flowed big port head and big-bore stainless steel exhaust system. The output is currently understood to be a relatively modest 265bhp, but could readily be increased to 365bhp, courtesy of larger fuel injectors etc. The fourwheel drive transmission boasts a Ferguson limited slip differential, while the bespoke BBR suspension includes uprated dampers and the multi-spoke alloy wheels (including the spare) are shod with fresh Toyo 215/45 R15 tyres. This fascinating car has been dry stored since birth, save for the 924 miles that have been accrued on trade plates. It could now be retained as a very effective track day special, or road registered following an SVA test. It is finished in a striking shade of Deep Metallic Red and trimmed in Grey cloth. Not only is David Brodie the car's sole owner to date, but also it's only driver, so there's nobody better to judge its current condition, and he has no hesitation in considering the two-door bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, engine and transmission as all being in 'excellent' order.
The potent Sierra RS Cosworth model was produced by Ford between 1986 and 1992, the prime purpose of which was to gain homologation for Group A Touring Car racing, though it was ultimately pressed into service for rallying too. It was extremely successful - especially in its ultimate RS500 form, in which it won 15 national race series.
