You'd have to phone and ask, maybe someone has fitted it. As we all know, none of S1's had PAS. Sticker on the wing is in the wrong place to, so its had work on the body, paint or even maybe a wing.

Looking at the pic the rims would appear to be 15's not the 14's stated in the add. I can also spy cheap and nasty ring spot lamps and a missing tow eye cover. Paintwork looks very good (from the pic) but the RS graphic seems to be too high.

The PAS claim could simply be an oversight on behalf of the dealer.
