Think he still has it doesn’t he? Boosted + 6 speed conversion. Would be ideal for mine tbh haha

Yeah I think so. Obviously he has the Focus too now and I think that takes up most of his time lol

Oh I've always wanted a coupe, I scan the classifieds regularly but the pre face lift are few and far between now. What's the plan for it?

I seen a yellow one on the M5 yesterday, first one I have seen for years.

Do these have the Willy engine in them or the Valver?

They've got their own F7R that's a development of the Williams F7R (completely different cylinder head) and the later versions were different again (chain driven oil pump) which were eventually developed into the F4R
The really late ones had a de-tuned F4R in them, 140bhp iirc

I had a phase one 2.0 coupe for a while, then a phase 2 cabby. The later ones were early direct injection engines, they were an F5R IDE. I've still got a timing tool set for the F5R engine somewhere

I had a F5R one which was an unreliable POS, crashed it into a barrier on the way to work one day and eventually broke it for parts and a F7R one which I sold to @Nick172Cup (pretty sure it was him anyway, was a very long time ago now!)

IDE that's the bit I couldn't remember I might be confusing the F5R with what's in a Scenic or Laguna
