It does look a nice one with a lovely clean interior! Being a real jap one, it should be worth more, than the 300bhp+ average FDH, which without wanting to upset anyone, do seem to often be the worst looking and poorest condition turbo coupe models around at the moment.

With that nice clean interior and a totally rust free body as well as the sensible mods/strengthening upgrades to the clutch and box, you will get around your asking price so be patient mate!

This IS an FDH, just that it wasnt registered in Dudley like most of them ( FDH is the code at the time for the Dudley registration office )

Not that it detracts from the car, it looks epic :)

Opps, I didn't know the story as well as I thought. I had just assumed that all the failed delivery car's in that one shipment to Japan were all registered with an FDH code.

My bad, I thought this was one of the car's that had actually lived in Japan and had been grey imported back again later on?
As said it doesn't matter as it is indeed a great example of a charcoal turbo coupe!
