      You will find another, I can vouch for that. I work across the Scottish Highlands renovating old properties and barns and three years ago I came across a very original RS with just over 5000 miles on clock hidden away in a barn. It’s still there to this day and the owner won’t part with it.
      I see a lot of cars like this and most often the public have no idea they are there.

    Fab car, no issues with the price. Only it's a curiously specific price - £94,195??
    At this price level, I'd anticipate £5K increments: £90k then £95K.
    Challenging to figure out what the, slightly arbitrary, £195 bit is for.
    No doubt the kgf crew have a rational explanation.
