That one aint a proper RS500 touring car iirc. Its a boreham shell and has a lot of the parts but look closely at the wheels, they are not proper centre lockers.

No they are not proper ones. Trust me, they are immitation ones. They have a centre nut for show but its not the one that holds the wheels on.

Seen it at countless fords shows and it was mag featured a while back. Its a proper shell and has most of the parts but it just depends how you define proper touring car. Martin on passionford has proper ones.

having seen it in real life in the daylight, i agree its not the real deal.

the wheel centres have nuts, but there is a hole through the centre and you can see the hub centres poking out at the back
