My ST185 Rally (Lightweight) Wide body - rarest model as it comes with a genuine E152F gearbox (Close ratio).
3 former keepers with only 57k miles and HPi clear
Not to be confused with a normal/ standard ST185 GT4, Carlos Sainz , RC, Rallye. According to experts, approx only less than 1500 vehicles of this model were only made. The Japanese market only GT-Four Rally has E152F with close ratio on the 1st through 4th gear and 4. 285 final ratio. All the RC/ Carlos Sainz/ Group A Rallye have E151F.
I have spent a number of years bringing this back to its former glory - it has been extremely hard work and I have spent a fortune on its restoration but loved every minute of it.
Check my FB post in 2022. - details above details below/ posts/ the details below59/ all photos of the restore process are on this group.
