Description:

In Brief:

  • Great example of the increasingly rare P100 Turbo Diesel Pickup
  • 1 of just 88 examples of the P100 Turbo Diesel that remain registered to UK roads
  • Maintenance work completed in 2016 as well as a new battery this year and new tyres around 1,000 miles ago
  • Subject to a restoration a short while ago

On the Surface: A really attractive and highly useable classic pick-up, this 1992 Ford P100 Turbo Diesel Pickup stands out for its evident restoration. It’s refreshing to see a perfectly good and sensibly sized British pick-up receive such care. The cab resembles the front part of a Sierra saloon and is finished in a distinctive grey chequer pattern.

Maintenance: & History In 2016, the vehicle underwent significant maintenance, including an oil change, and the installation of new track rod ends, control arms, and anti-roll bar bushes. Additionally, new tyres were fitted just over 1,000 miles ago, ensuring reliability and improved performance. The recent installation of a new battery adds to the vehicle’s dependability.

The vehicle comes with a V5C registration certificate, several invoices, the original P100 Pickup Owner’s manual, a Haynes workshop manual for a Ford Sierra, and an unstamped Ford service book. These documents provide a comprehensive record of the vehicle’s history and maintenance, reflecting its well-preserved condition.

The Model: For the 1988 model year, the P100 was re-bodied with a new Ford Sierra-based cab. Engine choices were originally the Sierra’s 2.0 litre “Pinto” carburetted petrol engine, with a 1.8 L turbo-diesel, which the example is fitted with, following soon thereafter. The range in this period was built in Portugal for the European market, to a design set out by Ford UK. It proved a strong seller, particularly on the UK market.

Powered by a 1753cc turbo diesel engine paired with a manual gearbox, this P100 delivers power exclusively to the rear wheels. The load area is substantial and comes fitted with a tonneau cover, making it not only practical but also aesthetically pleasing. However, prospective buyers should be aware of a noise emanating from the differential or the propshaft center bearing.

Sale Insight: The Vendor, looking to streamline his collection, has decided to part with this P100. This pickup offers a wonderful opportunity to acquire a highly functional and a bit of an oddball classic vehicle, which would undoubtedly be a welcome addition at classic car events.
