I could never click with many of them, most of then just put their cars into a garage for work to be done, where as I've always tried to do as much as possible myself...
I get the same feeling going RS national day, not that RS owners don't work on their own cars, but it's badge snobbery imo...
And it comes across on here...
Any none RS Ford isn't worthy of a price value increase...
Strange one on the insurance, I bought the scoob for my21st, sold it due to being 1200 to insure, insured the cav for 280 fc.
Can't comment on the rs snobbery as I've not been to any ford shows in a while but it is strange that some cosworth owners can't comprehend non cosworth price increases. Retro cars in general are booming now and selling fast......
I also only buy toys I can fix, it's part of classic car life, couldn't imagine being dependant on garages with classics.
