EXTERIOR
Finished in stunning factory Ford Rio Red, (Code E Z), Always garaged, it is hard to believe this ultra rare car is nearly three decades old with the paintwork preserved impeccably and a brilliant deep gloss shine. Meticulous scrutiny struggles to reveal anything other than a few carefully touched in tiny scratches and a small bleb to the spoiler, utterly insignificant. Supplying Ford main dealer number plates and rear screen sticker remain attached. All trim sections, rubbers, light clusters and badges are perfectly preserved away from harsh weather and sunlight damage. The underside is a miracle and spotlessly clean!

INTERIOR
Truly worthy of the accolade, time warp. The Opal Grey Cloth upholstery, (Code KB), is absolutely free from wear or damage with firm and shapely bolsters, all commensurate with 5,426 miles covered and very retro. The electrically operated driver’s lumbar and side bolsters adjustment both inflate and deflate seamlessly. All interior trim presents as new and the headlining is perfect. Tailored Ford Probe floor mats have protected the carpets from new. All controls and functions are fully operational including the cruise control and ‘Plus Pack’ Ford 2007 stereo. The leather trimmed steering wheel, gear knob and soft finish fascia are factory perfect with no visible wear to the touch points. Even the large load area remains spotlessly clean and free from damage complete with jack and brace in the original bag.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The most powerful engine in the range was the silky-smooth Mazda KL-DE 2.5 24v V6 developing 165bhp and 212Nm of torque. A top speed of 137mph and 0-62mph is achieved in 8.5 seconds. This whisper quiet yet throaty on demand V6 performs seamlessly in every respect and feels every inch the 5,426-mile example it is. The engine bay is pristine with all factory labels and stickers present and bright and the factory wax has protected and preserved the many visible metallic components. The five-speed gearbox is precise and beautifully weighted.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The 24v specification 7 x 16in five spoke alloy wheels are in pristine order with no kerb damage and the centre caps are perfect. Avon 225/50 R16 tyres have masses of tread having covered less than a thousand miles and the space saver spare has never been used. The ABS brakes offer superb stopping power.

HISTORY FILE
Supplied new on 3rd August 1995 by Ford Main Dealer, Quicks of Chester, the first registered owner was a Mr Goodier. The following year, Mr Goodier returned to the supplying dealer for them to supply and fit a rear spoiler costing £250 as confirmed by the invoice in the history file. Always garaged and used for the first two years, the car was taken off the road due to the first owners ill health where it remained dry stored. In 2007 the car had its first MOT and in 2013 the car was sold to a garage proprietor who underwent full recommissioning. Subsequent owners are fully traceable and listed in the huge history file along with annual mileage records allowing further verification of the amazing credentials. The service book shows eight stamped entries, the most recent in 2024 at 5,263 miles. The cambelt was changed 4,230 miles with supporting invoice and service book entry. The Ford document wallet holds all handbooks, guides and point of sale literature, and a huge folder of MOT records and invoices is beautifully organized. Both original keys with Ford immobiliser fobs plus two additional spare keys are included.
