The well-known previous owner, seems to me the only reason to buy this car, because I can’t imagine that someone the last generation Scorpio as ‘good’ can label.

Before the switch to the S80 (and later to an extra-long Audi A8) was made showed us a royal house in a Ford Scorpio transport. Or, our sovereign at rest, Beatrix, now her 77-th birthday celebrating (not in her dilapidated palace Huis ten Bosch, because that must first for 30 million taxpoet to be done), actually excluding these, a fat man with registration number 98-AA-53 as the car had we dare not be said with certainty.

It is quite possible that there are multiple copies, but judging from the books was this one used car is ever 100% sure in the service of the Royal House. In 1997, Ford put an end to the Scorpio-sales in the Netherlands.

The thick Cosworth 24-valve under the hood is a 2.9 V6 with 207 hp (average consumption: 12.5 l/100km) – has 165.000 km deep, and according to the provider, only the screens to repair. So…buy-buy-buy!
