Genuine Ford Mustang Saleen S-281 Cobra, build number 211, from 1997 being sold from an estate. The company Saleen has only built 128 S281 Cobras. In 1997, 13 coupes were built, of which 7 were black, 4 were white and 2 were red. A very rare car!

As the car is being sold from an estate, therefore the information is sparse compared to our other auctions and may also differ. It is possible that not all questions asked can be answered by the estate. At the time of documentation, the car was in rust-free, good working condition with a few blemishes. The car was test driven by us during the documentation and runs as it should in the engine and drivetrain. Previous owner of the car serviced the car regularly at his workshop. The car has previously been registered in Denmark.

Equipped with Ford's all-aluminium 4.6L 32-valve DOHC V8 of approx. 310hp/410nm mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive.

This Saleen uses the Ford Mustang SVT Cobra as a base car and has focused on upgraded handling. Better road holding has been achieved with the help of, among other things, better aerodynamics, upgraded chassis consisting of a lighter and stronger front bridge, adjustable camber plates from Maximum Motorsports and a real differential. For a better driving experience, they have also installed Saleen Shortshift and a better clutch that can withstand more inspiring driving.

Equipped with, among other things, leather interior, Ford MACH 460 Sound system, A/C, manual gearbox and multifunction steering wheel with cruise control.

The car is perceived by documentation to be in a good rustproof condition. Notes we have been able to find include a crack in the fiberglass hood and repair, a small scratch on the motif, two small defects on the driver's door and on the side of the door, a crack in the paint on the skirt on the driver's side and a small paint defect on the rear wing. The original wheels from Speedline are magnesium but need to be looked over as there is a really bad paint on them.

The leather interior has typical dry wear from the years but has not cracked or broken. Door panels are in good condition. Steering wheel slightly worn. The top of the skirts at the entrance has rubbed paint. Buttons and controls in good condition. Otherwise, nice interior that has held up well through all the years.

Mechanically, we unfortunately know little about the car other than that the owner serviced it every year at his mechanical workshop. During the test drive, the car feels good to drive.

A very rare and special Saleen Mustang whose owner has unfortunately passed away and now needs to find a new owner who can continue to look after the car.
