over next few weeks i notice a red S2 with spec one stickers drive past a few too many times, my road doesnt lead anywhere useful, n the car just drove up n then back.

few weeks after we start stripping my car and working with the garage door open, same car mooches past now n then, nice n slow. all too regular

we start working with garage door shut from then on. but 1 night we hear car blatantly park across my drive. we open garage, car blasts off. another night of work, and we hear sumthin big park up and 4 doors close, open garage door and 4 hooded up guys stop, turn around half way across my drive and rush bk to pick up and drive away. following week a car sits 20yards up from my drive for goin on 3 hours, i phone a few mates to come down n have a look, they pull up n approach the car, they blast off

1 night i come home n the usual RS turbo isnt just driving past, its parked up next to my drive with a van in tow, n the van owner is at my garage door. i screech into my drive, they try and calmy move along, i follow the rs turbo, it suddenly plants it, i keep up, enter a cul de sac in a shit hole part of brum............he pulls up with 4 other RS's, all spec one stickered

could just be a minority ruining the reputation for the majority, but adding my experience to the stories iv heard, and if my rs turbo ever went missing, i know which rs turbo owner id go looking for

luckily i havent seen any of the RS turbos or their owners on any of the midlands forums, so no problem there
Terrible I would personaly castrate anyone who tried similar .
I was a spec one owner Had some expencive servicing work done when i had my S2, stickers went on, wasnt sure weather or not to keep em on, a day later my dad tore the 's' off, and told me it was either all off, or pec one decals. Needless to say, they came off and it was mint again. Where in brum are you? Im harborne.
