SUMMARY
Wonderfully preserved Fiesta Ghia Mk1 from single-family ownership with just over 22,000 miles from new.
DESCRIPTION
- Supplied new in August 1981 by Colin Blower Garages of Hinckley, this astonishing Fiesta has covered just 22,050 miles
- We understand that it remained in single-family ownership its whole life, mother to daughter and then back to father as per the V5s within the file
- The substantial history file includes its original purchase invoice, showing an 'on the road' price of £4,808.74 including metallic paint, number plates and 7% discount
- Accompanying the sales document are numerous MOT Certificates as well as a June 1981 sales brochure from which, we imagine, the original buyers decided upon their choice of colour, trim and options
- There is evidence of minor scratching on the paintwork, the wheel arches might appreciate a little paint having brushed a garage wall or two, however our vendor has wisely decided in our opinion to leave the car with its few blemishes. It is after all, only original once
- An opportunity to acquire one the biggest selling Fords of the era, a Mk1 Fiesta Ghia, with very low mileage and low ownership
