Thanks folks. Yes it gets used. Done about 3000 mile in 2 years. Gets driven to every show and then cleaned when we get there

Loved my series 1, can't believe I was talked into selling it in 1994 only had 55k on it and was very rarely used, but the wife said the Vauxhall calibre would be a great replacement should have rid of her!

A really clean example. Puts my S2 to shame.

Beautiful car, and an impressive level of OCD you've got going on there - all the RS's on the hub covers perfectly aligned!

That is truely beautiful and a credit to you.

I had a white S2 RST in my early 20's - sold it about 11 years ago. Always preferred the S1 though.

Got any more of the resto pics?
