you thought about swapping your rear clusters and front indicators for smoked ones, would look MEGA with them on with the grey paint....

Fraz you have done a great job with your S1 like the colour and the smoked/red rear lights, nice to see something different for a change.

Fraz's car is a genuine S1. The car was bought and sent back to Ford to be painted in the grey before the 1st owner took delivery.
There were NO red S1's. Any red S1 was re-painted after it left the factory - inc the Datapost race cars & the press car. There are 2 known factory-black cars. One being the car Princess Diana drove, and the second has just come to light this year and information is being gathered on the history - however this car is also gen black from manufacture.
