    UK Press RS2's? Were any of them red?

    Does anyone know if the UK ever had a red RS2 press car?

    Just rechecked my magazine holdings and the only one with a red RS2 that I have is a LHD one in Brazil.

    The British magazines that I have all seem to have tested a Noggy blue with registration plates M120 MJB.

    Not to say that there wasn't a red one, just not in the UK mags I have.

          Nik (and John): Note the lack of the (Audi) oval badge on the front wing.

            Nik (and John): Found these in my stash of RS2 images (saved in June 2004). No idea where I saw/found/stole them.

            RHD but still not John's car though (as far as I can tell, no (Audi) badge on the wings)

                      It's a single gloss printed colour photo, the same as in the press packs (only UK and DE press packs and press photo's were B&W)
