not seen it before, but as per other comments - it looks like a really good build with good spec. It'll always be hard to buy something you know isn't quite the original article though right?
Having said that I spend my time playing with a 2 Mk1 Escort's with hardly an original part in place - one doesn't even run a ford engine.. lol

I remember going to a rolling road day in about 2005 at LPS in Ipswich when Seth who originally built it turned up with it. It's a shade of Subaru WRX-type-thing blue. Has ST170 interior loom which allows it to run proper climate control and other ST extra's over the RS like HFS. IIRC was built from a new or other RS shell using mostly new parts. I remember on the day it didn't make good power as the Bluefin was massively overfueling. Seth was a top bloke, very unassuming type of guy. Very nice car TBH back then when it had only donew limited miles. Got some pics of it back them, will try to dig them out.

Cheers for all the info guys I'm glad I checked as would of been gutted if I would of found out after doing the deal it's a nice car but it not being genuine puts me off as by the sound of it a st shell was used not a Rs one

Im the opposite, had my FRS nearly six years and only just getting used to the colour, love the car from the drivers seat but never been keen on the colour! Think Seth's looks much better in the lighter shade.

I seem to remember it had been reshelled with a new FRS shell but could be wrong. IIRC apart from the rear quarters the easiest way to tell is the front strut tops are different on an RS to any other FRS, not sure how they differ tho.

If you look at the strut tops on the Rs there is like a ring around the top of it if that makes sense on this one there is no ring it is completely smooth
