    I do like these cars, but 12 large for one of these???

    I should have gone and bought a few when they were 2 grand!

      Prices of the older Fords seem to have gone mental of late (or should that be more mental).
      One of my mates is a die-hard Ford man, or that's what we thought, when I last spoke to him he said he's been priced out of the market completely and has now gone Jap!!

                I think only the 86 models had sides

                    Small world. This bloke selling it lives in the same town as me. His personal transport is an orange GT3RS.
                    His wife has an Avus silver B5 RS4 that is always mingin.
                    Often catch a climpse of something exotic like ferraris and lambos around town and you know it's Peter.

                    Bit of an arrogant bloke, once said to me that the RS2 would never gain true classic status cos it looks like a clarkes shoebox on silly wheels.

                          On a serious note many years ago i made gearboxes for rs turbos using various bits otta derv ones etc and made afew quid doing it as well. So thanks ford owners. But mostly mk4 rs turbos. I did 3 mk 3 escorts and every one was as mint as you could ever imagine.. and on everyone i showed the owners just how rusty and poor they really was under the body kits.
                          They all said thanks.
