I used to go to a bakery for my lunch every day back in 2000.
Across the road sat a sorry looking rs1600i,I always wanted it and in 2011 I got the chance to buy it.
It was red rotten but I bought every panel for it and got a guy round to quote for welding,he said it was a huge job,I asked if 4k would cover the welding and he said no way.
I could have bought a vgc rs1600i back then for around 6k so I cut it up.
I cut out the section of 1/4 panel with the "rs1600i" sticker on it,that's hangs in my garage,along with a cut up cossie bootlid and spoiler and a big airbrushed painting of a scottish glen scene featuring Sean Connery in a kilt and my mate phils mum (random coincidence but the likeness is uncanny) showing some cleavage.
