FORD SIERRA XR 4X4 1985

HI. THANKS FOR LOOKING AT MY LISTING.
I AM OFFERING A  RARE OPPORTUNITY TO BUY A GENUINE UNMOLESTED 1985 FORD SIERRA XR4X4. A CAR WHICH WILL ONLY INCREASE IN VALUE WITH ONLY A VERY FEW DECENT EXAMPLES LEFT. VEHICLE BASED IN GUERNSEY. CHANNEL ISLANDS HAVING BEEN IMPORTED FROM THE MAINLAND IN 2012. ALL ORIGINAL HANDBOOKS. SOME PAST MOT CERTIFICATES AND A COPY OF AUTOCAR MAGAZINE 20/6/85 ( ROAD TEST ) INCLUDED IN THE SALE.
THE BODYWORK IS IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION FOR ITS AGE. AROUND THE FRONT STRUTS. BULKHEAD. A POSTS. SUNROOF. BOOT FLOOR. WHEEL WELL IS ALL GOOD BUT AS CAN BE SEEN ON THE PICTURES BOTH REAR WHEEL ARCHES. THE BOTTOM OF A COUPLE OF THE DOORS AND THE FRONT JACKING POINTS WILL NEED SOME ATTENTION. THE CORRECT RS ALLOYS ARE FITTED.   MECHANICALLY THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR ABOUT A YEAR ALTHOUGH HAS BEEN STARTED A FEW TIMES. IT WILL REQUIRE SOME ATTENTION. BATTERY IS FLAT AND WHEN LAST STARTED THERE WAS A FUEL LEAK FROM THE PUMP/FILTER AREA. HE CLUTCH RELEASE BEARING IS ALSO A BIT NOISY. I WOULD RECOMMEND CHECKING THE BRAKES AS DISCS/CALIPERS DO HAVE SOME RUST. MILEAGE IS 116000 AND BELIEVED GENUINE. THERE IS A GOOD SERVICE HISTORY TO BACK THIS UP. IT HAS NO CURRENT MOT AS THIS IS NOT A REQUIREMENT IN GUERNSEY.
THE INTERIOR IS GENERALLY QUITE GOOD. THE DASHBOARD HAS THE USUAL CRACKS ON TOP AS WITH MOST OLDER SIERRAS. THE CARPET IS CLEAN. RECAROS ARE PRETTY DECENT ALTHOUGH DRIVERS SIDE HAS A SMALL HOLE TOWARDS THE BACK OF THE BOLSTER. THE DOOR CARDS ARE COMPLETE BUT THE TOP EDGES ON BOTH HAVE COME UNSTUCK SO WILL NEED SOME EVOSTICK AND CLOTHES PEGS!
ALTHOUGH THE CAR IS FAR FROM PERFECT IT WOULD MAKE A GREAT BASIS FOR A SHOW VEHICLE OR ALTERNATIVELY A LITTLE NICE WINTER PROJECT TO USE AS A DAILY DRIVER THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE THOUSANDS OF POUNDS AND HUNDREDS OF HOURS WORK TO MAKE USABLE.
 THE CAR IS LOCATED AND REGISTERED IN GUERNSEY HAVING BEEN IMPORTED FROM MAINLAND UK IN MAY 2012. I WILL ARRANGE SHIPPING TO SOUTHAMPTON AT MY EXPENSE. IT WILL NEED TO BE COLLECTED FROM SOUTHAMPTON DOCKS ( BY TRAILER )  AND PLEASE NOTE THAT VAT MAY BE PAYABLE ON COLLECTION.
THE SIERRA IS ALSO ADVERTISED ELSEWHERE. I'VE HAD SOME INTEREST SO IT MAY BE REMOVED IF A REASONABLE OFFER IS MADE BEFORE THIS LISTING ENDS.   
I HAVE TRIED TO BE AS HONEST AS POSSIBLE WITH THE DESCRIPTION. ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS PLEASE MESSAGE ME.  
THIS CAR WILL NOT BE RELISTED ON HERE. I WILL CONSIDER ALL SENSIBLE OFFERS. THANKS.
