That car is an Escort RS Turbo no matter what is on the log book
In fact as Gra found out the lookbook can be changed
Anyone who slates the car because it didn't start life as an RST either doesn't know the car or is simply jealous.
Who cares what other think, just enjoy the car
Oh, and I would have it badged as an RST

It isnt its an Escort XR turbo. It simply cannot be an RS. And never will be. THIS IS NOT pulling the car down, as i was intrested myself, but its fact. I fully agree with that its the bollox and leave the badges on, but it isnt an RS!
If you grafted a Vectra gsi kit onto it, put in a vauxhall 2.5 vg lump in it, GSi recaros etc would it make it a Vauxhall escort 2.5 gsi? No and its the same thing!
