precisely.. no way this car wiull EVER change hands for 12k .. or even double that IMO.. purely cos it's Di's old car.
A minty mint S1 will fetch 8k so for rarity value this car is worth ££££ to the right person.

I know that there will be a few people saying there was 3 black ones.

There will be a few people saying there was only ever 1 black one, the others were all painted afterwards.

There will be a few people saying there was 5 red ones done for the MD's of Ford.

So that is "What i know about this"

You are not the only one with a Series 1 RS Turbo mate. Been there and got the T-Shirt.

If this car has dianna`s name on the book then its gonna be worth a serious amount of money. Beckhams escort 1.6 went for a good sum to.

FPMSL

I know Jeff very well he is a good mate, and there is no way the car has been insured for £200k

A few 'facts' for you,

The car HASNT and NEVER had at anytime Diana's name in the log book, The car was registered as Ford Motor Company, she never really owned it, as it was on loan from Fords,

The car has from memory about 30,000 miles

The front grill and plates were changed by Ford Motor Company when they had the car back off Diana,

I know he has been offered money for the car, not £70k though!! but why sell it, its a piece of history, regardless of the past drivers of the car.

IMO the only thing that makes this car valuble is the fact that it is a mint 30,000 mile S1, that is the ONLY genuine Black example in existence!!

my understanding is that there is and was only 1 black one, and 3 red ones for the Datapost rally team.

all started white then where sent straight round again to recive there new colours.

every other S1 was Diamond white from ford and shold bgloody stay that way.

happy to be proved wrong
