He tells me the car is a RHD Tickford 350 BHP version.
I was told about a 200 bearing the reg number E380UKN and having done some digging using public data systems and found it was indeed this car.
The check confirmed the chassis number to be SFACXXBJ2CGL00112 and went on to say:-
Make: FORD
Model: RS 200 4WD
Transmission & fuel type: MANUAL 5 GEARS PETROL
Body type: 2 DOOR SALOON
Engine no. GL00112
Colour: White
First Registered: 15/10/1987
Year of Manufacture: 1987
On 18/12/2002 it had covered 6,000 miles, it also said, "There are no plate change or colour change records associated with this car. This car is still registered to its first keeper."
On 23/3/2016 the new UK owner (TD) made contact to say he had bought 112 through Bonhams auction.

It was described as follows:-
Purchased new by the current vendor from Stormont Ford of Tunbridge Wells, the right-hand drive RS200 offered here - chassis number '112' - has the up-rated, 350bhp engine. After a little over 6,000 miles had been covered, the car was put up on blocks (in 1994) and has been carefully stored and not used since. Offered in need of re-commissioning, it comes with an original RS200 handbook, tool-kit, spare key and a V5 registration document.
Mark Gold from Bonhams zipped me up some nice images for us (thanks)
and (TD) has promised some more once the car is given some TLC.February 2020 - I visited the wife of the owner Terry Drury who had sadly passed away, I inspected the car and was amazed at the condition and the quality of the Stratton pack. She said that she would keep it for now but might sell on in the future. A quite famous first owner also:- The Hon. John Nivison was owner number 1. I took some images which I have uploaded.
August 2023 - Having spoken to the owner I can confirm that this car will be up for auction soon at the Silverstone Festival where of source 20 or so other RS200's will be meeting.
