ARROWS FORMULA 1 ESCORT COSWORTH

The Arrows Formula 1 team persuaded Brooklyn Ford to make a special edition Escort Cosworth. Done in Arrows team racing colours and livery as well as the names of all their sponsors stickered all over the car, they were definitely designed to stand out in a crowd. With an engine upgrade that added around 40 bhp more than the standard Cosworth, tweaked suspension, special Enkei wheels, twin headlight conversion from new and a few other upgrades. There were supposedly only 25 Formula 1 Arrows Escort Cosworths manufactured worldwide according to the feature done in a 1995 issue of Fast Ford Magazine, however speaking to a gentleman that had a lot to do with Brooklyn Ford in the 90 s when these cars were done he has confirmed there were no more than 10 made, making this car the rarest Cosworth ever made and possibly the rarest Ford in the world. These cars were made specifically for the Japanese market as at the time they were heavily involved in the Arrows F 1 t eam, and nearly all made there way over to Japan where they are believed to have ended up in private collections. Of supposed 10 cars built this car is build number 3 and is the only original unmolested one known with only one other car known too in existence which is located in Australia and has been totally messed around with and is completely wrong. You could order these cars in 3 versions standard form with standard cloth interior, lux pack with a few extras and top spec with full leather interior, aircon, electric sunroof etc. This is the top spec one which as the Japanese don't like leather due to their climate this could be the only made with the full factory upgrade. This car is a 1 owner car and has done 34,000 miles from new, spare tyre unused still on its original F 1 eagle tyre, the rest of the wheels are on as new Michelin Pilots, toolkit unused and with its original handbook folder, it can only be described as A 1 concourse, without even a stone chip. When you bo ught the car new you received a scale model of your car and Sergio Tacchini sportswear, this car still has these items with it. Have you ever seen or heard about one of these cars? This is an amazing opportunity to own one of the rarest Fords on the planet in the best condition, and will sit proud at any car show and in any private collection, not even the ford motor museum has one of these cars which is where it really needs to be, forget your RS 500's and your RS 200's which you can easily find a handful of in the UK for sale, you will not find another one of these cars for sale in the world, I have owned this car for 4 years now and have searched high and low for another without any success, even at Ford shows the most anoraks of Ford fanatics I have had to give an education lesson to as they have never even seen or heard of one. Rarer than hens teeth and rocking horse poo, this car is the piece de resistance. This will not come cheap but the best never is, one for the ser ious serious collector. Remember what is expensive today is cheap tomorrow, and even standard low mileage examples in this condition are becoming very hard to come by.
