yes the car is worth saving. there was no rust on it.
only the ecu was on the dashboard. and there where two wheels missing.
but i think it stood there for ten year's or so

I also don't live in Paris. The biggest town in this district has about 18000 people living there. And this Ford Dealer wouln't be allowed to use the Ford logo in the future time...

The linkage from the pedal to the master brake cylinder is different. RS1600i's were developed in germany only for LHD and the brake cylinder and the rest wasn't changed for RHD on the RSi

Paintwork looks quite blooming good if it's been sat there for 10 years !
Got to be worth a 2nd look with a view to rescuing it
