Yeh, I remember this one. It was on ebay last year, same seller. They'd got it as a 1995 and when I let them know it was actually 1985 they were a little shirty.....said they could only put what their seller had written down for them to put. As if DVLA didn't count. The ebay text was corrected soon after though.

So all in all, they seem to put things down that we can see are......well not quite what we'd expect.

The last VIN as far as we know was JMZFB131200705582.

The holder of that honour is likely to be on a 'D' plate?
Mine is about 250 before that and reg'd late 85
Mine is 182 before that.
1985 Sunrise Red S3 TWR

Ha Ha.....It's a trick to get everyone's VIN Nos.

No it's not Dave, but it figures, you're a Feb '86 Reg I think.

Dunno, but I look at this for £540 and compare it to the Blue S2 (Sam Glover's car) and the Black S3 (A*** SWC at RX Motors).....both went for £310.....that's if they've not got bogged down by Timewasters.

This Blue one looks to me like someone got lucky.....another Lucky that is.

What the Xloody Hell has happened to this car :shock:

If you remember, this was the little silver mouse that hung out for quite a while as a clearance on a used car lot in Hounslow last year.

Bit of work gone on here.....It's turned into a raging red monster machine.
