Classic Ford enthusiasts are in for a treat with a collection of ten retro Fords going under the hammer, this month.
Desirable Capri, RS Cosworth and Escorts are amongst 14 lots at the online sale run by motor specialists, Collecting Cars.
The un-named owner wanted only the best ‘fast Fords’ around and almost all the performance cars for sale come with incredibly low mileage and are presented in tip-top condition.
Amongst the highlights are a 46,000 mile 1988 Ford Capri 280 Brooklands – one of only 1038 made.
There is also a 1983 Ford Escort RS1600i with only 54,000 miles on the clock and a very collectible RS Ford Sierra Cosworth. Joining them is another rare Escort, a 1985 RS Turbo.
Collecting Cars said the proud owner ‘paid particular attention to the lightweight and analogue 80s models’ that were destined to become hot property in years to come.
The ten Fords are joined by a Peugeot 205 CTI 1.6 and VW Corrado G60, both manufactured in 1992 and two limited edition Caterhams.
Online bidding for the Fast Fords and Friends Collection is underway and runs until 6.30pm on Sunday, 21st May.
