EXTERIOR
To suggest that this example is as new is a bold statement, but one which is wholly justified with this perfect Fiesta. Perhaps most impressive is the underside which has been preserved in a time warp condition, with all orange PDI markings to the suspension components, yellow paint dots to the springs and factory stickers still intact, all features usually destroyed within the first few weeks! In factory original Diamond White, (Code B 2), the paintwork to all factory panels is 100% original and essentially as new. The trim sections are perfect and supplying Ford dealer number plates, rear screen sticker and tax disc holder with first issue 1992 disc remain fitted!
INTERIOR
The cabin space with Goodwood Grey fabric trim, (Code L V), is simply as it sat in the showroom awaiting collection by the first and only owner. Seats, door cards, headlining and carpets are as new throughout. The controls and switchgear have bright clear symbols and the new car feel which is lost soon after regular use. All functions operate flawlessly including the ultra-rare Ford self-seek model 2001 stereo with lack of cassette player which was fitted to all models bar the most basic ‘Fiesta’.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The 1.1 HCS four cylinder ‘Valencia’ engine is a redesigned version of the Kent unit dating back to the 1950’s and Ford Anglia era! Specification includes a twin-venturi carburettor and manual choke set up which produces a rather pedestrian 53bhp at 5200rpm whereby a top speed of 94mph and 0-60mph is achieved in 14.2 seconds. The pristine engine bay has original plates, fragile paper stickers/labels and factory panel stampings clearly visible. A new Ford Motorcraft oil filter and the red Ford HT Leads remain fitted. The four-speed manual gearbox is slick and superlight.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The factory steel wheels of size 4½ x 13 are in perfect order with the original full wheel covers fitted and as new. The original seeking collector with be pleased to see factory fitted Michelin MX L 155/70 R13 tyres all-round which should be renewed if the car is to be put into use. Fully overhauled in October 2024 after long term storage, the servo-assisted diagonally split brakes with 9½” discs up front and 7”drums at the rear are free and operate correctly.
HISTORY FILE
Registered new on the 26th March 1992 by Meridian Ford Leicester, this exceptional example was purchased by Mr Thompson who was to be the only owner the car has had. A new vehicle order form and subsequent sales invoice is made out to Mr Thompson illustrating a price paid of £6,200 for this most basic of the Fiesta model. Sadly, quite soon after purchasing the vehicle Mr Thompson began to lose his sight which meant the car was left garaged and could not be used. The almost inconceivable 422 miles from new is absolutely genuine and until now, the car was last on the road in around 1996. Despite the clear lack of use, the car was kept on the road for the first fours years and there are four stamped Ford main dealer entries in the service book covering this period. In October 2024 the car was discovered and has since undergone a major service, recommissioning and brake overhaul using genuine Ford parts where possible. The history file has all welcome letters from Ford following initial purchase as well as all corresponding Ford service invoices and checklists. The first MOT certificate in 1995 has been kept as have all tax discs from 1992 to 1996. The full book pack is present with even the ford cardboard sleeve that the document wallet was supplied in! Three keys including the master blade and codes tags are present.
