like the others said its a special ed 1600 sport with rs bits on wheels seats tints ect but it dos not have the RS name and it will say sport on the log book not harrier,it dos say harrier on one of the tag plates tho dont let it put you off not been a "RS" as they are worth just as much if not more than a mex or rs2k as there were only 1500 ever made most of them been white and a optinal extra got about Ł35 you could get sliver

very rare and worth a lot, one in my town

white with blue livery they are. Launched back in the day as a "sports" model without the RS tag for cheaper insurance etc for the young 'uns

believe it or not, I probably own the most butchered harrier on the planet

revs done a good job of changing just about every good part of it as seen below,

its all rubbed down and i'm considering re shelling it as it needs a bit too many panels to make it original and tough again.
