I've just bought a '92 1.6 Eunos S-Special. Apart from the chrome teardrop mirror covers and the oem front upper strut brace. What else do you get with an S-Special, over and above a 'base' model? Is there anything else that makes this a 'special'?? Cheers

It should come with Bilstein shocks, BBS alloys, Nardi leather steering wheel and gear knob, and a rear spoiler. Does that sound about right?

Yeah it does sound right, it has a rear spoiler, nardi steering wheel, haven't checked the shocks yet. It deosn't have BBS wheels, but they may have been changed at some point. Didn't know if it would have an LSD or anything like that?

I think the 1.6 has a viscous LSD (will have returned to open by 60k miles) and the 1.8 had a torsen LSD. Spoiler was an option.
