    Pearl white didn't come in G plate (barring the very odd late registration). E and F only, that is assuming you want the Phase 2 (which were actually Phase 1.5)?

    They are really rare now and even rarer in good nick paint wise, so yes, you'd likely be looking at a respray etc. In which case, you might consider a project car and have it completely re-done. The pearl looks lovely when fresh.

    E or F plate, exactly as you said I've nearly finished a resto on a white fiesta RS turbo so needing work doesn't bother me just want to find one asap!

    There's always one So, are you offering it for sale Mark?

    Edit - Go on mate, I've seen G plate pearls, just not sure I've seen one that was fully Phase 2. Plenty that looked Ph2 externally but not mechanically. If you are sure it was pearl from the factory and the engine bay is relatively OE we should be able to tell if you post up a pic. I'm intrigued.

    Sorry for the hijack, though it does help to keep your wanted ad in circulation pagey!

    I wonder what happened to that low mileage pearl that, was it 'pearl baby' signed on here to get a value for. Beautiful condition but had the 'extra bits' added. Shame.

    It would have come up if she sold it.. The Porsche seats etc would be easy to spot if it was doing the rounds on here and the Facebook pages..

    I think it's safe to say it's still being looked after next to the Ferrari.

    Probably. I think she was quite surprised at how much it wasn't worth. She had a little rant to me via pm having a swipe at some of the 'radical' versions on the forum and in the same breath not understanding how her 'personalising' had in fact partially ruined a very nice one.
