Smile 1990 240 GLT- Limited Slip Diff?

Hi folks wondering if you can tell me if the 240 GLT (2.3 red block) with 5 speed manual gearbox came with a limited slip diff as standard?

I’m breaking my car (see my other post) and I’ve been asked this question and not sure if it is or not.

I know I can check by spinning prop but I’m not near the car for a week so thought someone on here would know for sure.

Many thanks in advance!

Not as standard. It was a very expensive option and very few cars in the U.K. had them fitted.

Very rare option.
I have seen a couple with a locker as part of a towing pack but never seen a UK car with a factory LSD
