The car is on a private license plate as the FRS was only registered from 2002 onwards

there is no press cars,there was 5 built and given about 2 be thrashed but when they were finished they were crushed by ford so they couldnt get on the market and harm the reliability of owners,and they cost 28k each 2 build and sold for 20k . . .just so ford could prove a point . . .mint!!!!!

It is a private plate.

Just bought the RS. It was meant to read Simon one of the previous owners. Its now back on its original plate a 52.

Cheers
