Has he stripped the motor down and messed about with it or is it as i sold him it, just i noticed you said it has H sestion rods.
Nice to see it all built up and ready for some proper power, i take it the motor went together without any issues??????????????? I hope so cause its going to be a fooking beast.

Shawn i know the owner and ive seen him build this car up, everything is S1 100% and im sure it is a genuine S1, maybe you think its fake because of the roof. Ford made a S1 that came without a sunroof and electric windows etc, this was the non custom. I think this is what has made you think its not real. Besides it cant be in RSOC and in a RSOC show if its not real so if they have passed it then thats that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moza mate, I'm aware of custom/non-custom models. You should know that by now Besides, I cannot see the roof in those two pics, so wouldn't know if it had a sunroof, or indeed electrics at all.
However, I do checks on the DVLA and RAC websites on any new S1 pics I find and this came back as an Escort Base, not as an Escort Turbo as it should.
Just because all the parts are genuine S1, doesn't mean the shell is...which makes it a non-genuine S1 in the eyes of RSOC. So I don't know how it has got past them as they should also check the genuinity of any vehicles before any membership is given.
As I said before tho, even if it's not a genuine S1, it's still a very good car (even with a S2 spoiler )
