All F1's are sold so S/H is your only option.

Prices are tumbling at present, 12K gets you lots of options.

What colour you wanting??

 

[lang1133]

im looking for either white or the yellow

 

[Revels]

There is only 1 white one, it was a special one made for a guy on here in respect of his brother who died IIRC.

So its yellow then mate if you want a R27.

you can get just the 197. (not f1)

in white or yellow.

why you want an f1 in particular?

 

[lang1133]

ah i think i got mixed up the f1 and cup are different ?

 

[lang1133]

looks like its going to be a yellow one for me then which model is the best for the money

 

[Revels]

R27 is the best bet money wise I think.

But im not too hot on the 197 spec, but someone who knows more will be along shortly..

Hi.

Your best bet is to go for a one owner, low mileage R27. That's the F1 Edition that you want. With the market being as rubbish as it is, you'll be able to get a good deal.

Go for one with as high a spec as you can afford. Xenons, Climate etc.

They're the best-looking 197 too.

:S how a 197 f1 looks the same as any 197 thats the oddst coment i think ive seen on here

Red callipers. Recaros. Stickers. Anthracite wheels. F1 Team plaque. All standard...

Of course you can spec a 197 to be nearly identical, but to me, the R27 just looks a little more special... i'm not sure why.

spose but to anyone normal wouldnt notice these things an the stickers seem to be removed from most cars as they dont like them which spoils the whole fact its a special model
