S1 was the first PRODUCTION car to have a viscous coupling limited slip differential.

FACT.

S1's DO have LSD's....

Yep 100% S1 turbos had LSDs.

I don't know where Fast Ford do their research sometimes as its full of noddy mistakes. Last time I read it they still seemed to think that the 2.0 DOHC Sierra engine was a twin cam pinto - even my nan knows that's not the case lol
