That is fooking luuuuuuuuurvley!... so what if its not a gen RS, you probably wouldn't want to drive it as much if it was and yours probably rocks a better , more reliable motor!

Has it got the right interior in it for an RS or close?

Its actually an XR3 on the log book still, But its running a Fiesta RS Turbo lump but with a Mondeo Zetec Bottom end with CVH head, Samco hoses, Bailey Dump Valve, Fiesta RS Turbo management system, Lowered SPrings all round, Full Stainless Ehaust, K & N Induction kit, Oil Catch Can, UP rated & Adjustable front anti roll bars.

As for what its got RS wise then its all Genuine RS items, RS 7 Spoke Alloys, RS Turbo Recaro series 1 interior, RS turbo steering wheel, Dash, Door Pannels, Carpet, Clocks, Genuine RS opening rear Quater windows, RS Turbo Front Spot lamps, Full Genuine RS Turbo Body kit, Full Genuine RS Turbo sticker kit.

The car was put on a ramp for me when I went to see it & its as white underneath as on the body, Never been welded anywhere including Battery tray, Sills, Chassis legs.

Someone has spent a small fortune in getting the car like it is now

Fook a genuine one then.... would be well happy with what you've got and who would know when you're driving it about.... really like it.

and did you have to spend a small fortune to obtain it?

Only way you cna really tell its not a genuine one is that its on a X plate, & if it had a private plate then if you really knew your stuff you could tell because the roof gutters are slightly shorter on this one

I though the first pic would have been enough to guess it,

Went to my old works in it today & gave it a clean, No one there realised it wasnt a genuine one, Until they saw it was an X plate
