Dunno if it's just me (probably is!

) but is anyone else find themselves amazed at how much RSs are worth?! For what is essentially a old escort or fiesta with an engine you can pick up for a couple of hundred quid and a few bits of plastic bolted onto it you still see them changing hands for thousands of pounds (i know there are a few other differences, interior etc, but not major ones).
Why?! Yeah i mean they're not exactly a common sight on the road these days but they're not really rare either, so why so much?? Say the average price for an RS is 2.5 - 3 grand, you seen how much car you can pick up for that these days??
Dont get me wrong i think they are cool little cars, my brother has an ERST and i love it, but i wouldnt pay 3 grand for it!! Know what im saying?
