Lhd S1 Mark

Howdy All,

New to all this forum stuff, but just bought a left hand drive S1 back from france and started to strip her down for resto, thought it worth a shot at posting and maybe get some advice and help along the way!

Will try uploading first lot of pics tonight!

Sounds an interesting resto, i'll follow this one!

Are they cheaper to purchase on the continent then?

Its a complicated story buddy, but in short i work for a chap who has a garage in france and he took it in part ex, been stored for 10 years! just thought it was something a little different, in france they dont really know what they are so value is really low, but its a case of finding them over there now.

I had a lhd s1 some years ago and sold it havent heard of it for a long while was told there was only ever 50 made lhd dont know how true that was. It was pretty mint sold it 9 years ago before the days of pistonheads and ebay got 5k for it.
