Was wondering if anybody knew anything about series 1 rs turbo b23 gty as i am going to view it on the weekend and just want to see if i can get a bit of background info on the car. apparently the car used to belong to a guy called darren snow (snowie) who apparently won many trophies with that car then went on to strip it to give it a freshen up but sold it as an unfinished project .i have done a HPI check on the car and that hs come back all ok but i looked on the RSOC series 1 database, it states b23 gty non custom fitted with sunroof sold for spares. If anyone could be give me any straight answers it would be much appreciated as somebody said it maybe a ringer.

Thanks for looking and any help would be great.

Is that Darren's car that's on comp th's just now.i was going to buy it but out of my price range at the time.if its the car I'm thinking off then its not a ringer and a very very good s1 and Darren has put loads of time effort and money in to building it back up from the previous owner who sold it as a project to Darren.

Just googled it and it is the car I'm thinking off.worth the money all day long.
