Default LHD Series 1

Hi, I am new to this forum, I have a LHD Series 1 Rs Turbo with 57,000kms on it and Ford Service history from 1986, Absolute pristine unrestored. I found it in Barcelona in a Garage of a Villa i bought,I could not belive it so i made him a cash offer and that was that !! It has some differences like a dashboard made from a material that just doesnt crack, has to have this in this heat, It is exactly as one of these would be if you had a time machine and popped back to a dealer in 86, Everything original right down to Glass, Locks, Even jubilee clips, I Love these cars !!! Just letting everyone know this is out there

Its never seen the rain so rust not a problem, Put the Mongoose on for my own pleasure but still have the original system. The battery is on the opposite side also compared to UK models. It still has the factory underseal (not brilliant white under arches) as i said it is as the factory intended. When i found it i would have paid what ever price the fella said, i absolutely love these cars and when its out in Puerto Banus it gets a better response than an Enzo !!

Still waiting for the pictures
By the way if the exhaust is an original series one system with the oval box not round like a series 2,I believe it is worth a lot of money if in good condition.DO NOT bin it
I sold a s1 rear box and when someone on here said how much they were worth I nearly fell over

Stuck in EBay to test the water and generate interest, it has the original oval S1 exhaust system, it's had 2500 views and had 167 watchers and I've had 8 offers in the first few days,,

Looks nice but left hooker in the UK isn't ideal but the condition looks spot on - good luck at that price as it's strong money and would have to be special
