1 of 1 1986 Rosso Red Sierra Cosworth

The Sierra Cosworth collection includes the remarkable 1986 Rosso Red example, uniquely commissioned by Ford for the Duke of Bedfordshire and retained in the marque’s press fleet. Owned by celebrated racer Vince Woodman for 30 years, this car retains extraordinary provenance which is fully documented in its history file (available to view prior to sale). Accompanying this rare model are three additional Sierra Cosworths, each distinguished by their impressively low mileage and condition, including a 1990 Sierra Sapphire Cosworth 2WD in Diamond White with just 31,000 miles, a low-mileage 1991 Sierra Sapphire Cosworth 4WD in Moonstone Blue with 64,000 miles, and a meticulously preserved, ultra-low mileage (17,000 km) left-hand-drive 1986 Sierra Cosworth in black.
