a friend of mine has 1 in his barn that has a genuine 13k on the clock but unfortunatly it has been sitting so long it will need a full re spray & he suspects the engine has seized where its sat for so long,,,

do you think this would still be worth while restoring due to the low 13k milage???

ive owned 1 already & do regret selling it as i believe there the best looking rs

hes just finished re building a 450bhp escos that his had in the garage for 5 years,,,, i keep telling him to start restoring the series 1 but he's spent so much on the cossie he says he couldnt afford it for a fair while,,,
i will bug him to go & have a look soon as its stored somewhere near me,
ive been sooo tempted to find out more in the possibility of buying it but i think his had it so long (10+years)he wouldnt sell anyway because of the low milage & the fact he knows there getting very sought after

Nothing to do with Ford either Dave apart from they were originally made by Ford.....in white.

The ONLY genuine red S1 cars are the Datapost cars...

the other ones will have a colour change noted someware and if you trace it back to original day of purchase it will be white,saying that,mine WAS a white one from the factory and painted red by ford @ boreham b4 registration so it is classed as red.

Hopefully should be going well in about a fortnight. Just having engine rebuilt by Derek Palmer at Pro-Motorsport as we speak. Then back to my garage for a spot of re-wiring and hopefully a new dash.

Cheers guys although the vast majority of the hard work was done by Jake from the Scottish club before I bought it off him last march. Don't really like taking the credit for another mans work. It's just up to me now to keep her in as good condition.

Default MY S1. YOU HAVE TO SEE THE POTENTIAL.

SLOWLY RE-ASSEMBLING.
POWDER COATED SUSPENSION
KONI`S
GRS - INTERCOOLER & RAD
REBUILT ENGINE
COSSIE BRAKES

slow progress coming up to christmas but back into it now, have all suspension at powder coaters at moment, ordered lots of new parts from ford - should be here this week.

Alloy wise - was thinking of anthracite speedlines - what does everyone think?? I do have a good set of standard alloys with good tyres - should I leave it standard?
