Gorgeous.

Speaking as someone who has owned loads of Mk3 Escorts and RSi's it is always cheaper to buy a more expensive mint car to start with than to try and restore one. That one looks well worth the money.

BTW the guys on the RSOC BB are in the process of getting replica mild steel "original" exhausts made for a reasonable price...

Thats very true as long as you can find the right car, there's always the risk of getting one that has been 'restored' only to find its full of bodges

Mines needs alot of work doing to it but after viewing other RSi's i decided i'd rather spend the money on mine, so at least i'll know its gone together right. Besides you only have one life, you cant spend your money when your 'brown bread'
