What Door cards did the RS touring have? did it have the armrests and door bins like the S E and T's or did it have similar to the RS Lightweight without the bins and a strap to pull the door closed?

Anyone got any good RS touring interior pics?

Same as other cars of the period - only Lightweights came without door bins etc. - here are some pics of my Touring #496:

Steering wheel is different being a 380mm - and on mine, being a first 500 car, you have a 'Carrera Horn Butterfly' - it's made of plastic rather than metal. Aparantly they were flimsy and didn't last so many were replaced and the design later returned to the traditional metal one.

Mine is a surviving plastic Carrera one.

I would take that off and put in a hemetically sealed enclosure, so it can never be damaged! But then I'm a bit fussy like that!
