mate the day you sell a 32k RST for a Golf GTI or similar is one you'll regret for the rest of your life....
they can call it a banger all they like lets see how theirs goes against it, i know who my moneys on lol. I'm 19 and always have people asking me why i bother with a shonky old escort, Because it's a car i've always liked and is proper underrated.
The reliability factor always comes into it, but you'll never get the rush you do from a RST.
Stick with the turbo mate
