In May 2004 I received an email from William Arnold who has been photographing and cataloguing RS200's also, he thinks #186 used to have the index 66 DBD and was owned by David Dee of Dee's of Croydon. It was for sale in 1995 for around £45,000 - The index number was not being included in the sale. William has sent me some images.
In August 2004 I made contact with the owner (RS) who bought #186 himself in 2001 from a friend of David Dee. It had about 5000 miles and had at that time been to two RS days with the car Strathclyde park and also Ardoe house Aberdeen. #186 has also been to local car club venues twice (historic wheels) at Brodie. (RS) promised some more info and images but someone stole his camera ! - Nice !
Then, around 2010 ish #186 had a new owner, (AK) from London and we keep in touch by email - another car enthusiast to put it mildly
June 2021 - 186 is for sale https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/1988-ford-rs200
If you find out anything else about this car please drop me an email and I'll update the cars entry !
