It was epic in them days! But to be fair an rs2000 mk2 was 5k, an escort cos 14k and an rs500 cossie was like 16k, most cosssies have been converted back to standard and parts are a nightmare to get hold of, cant help but feel that's been a big part in the change of the scene.
Yea good to be a seller of a cossie or rs turbo now, I'd hate to be a buying now, going hold on to my cossie for along as I can as I'd hate to replace it now.
