Default Waved Goodbye to the Rouse Today

Said goodbye to the Rouse Today met the Guy at Blackpool airport he had flown over from Ireland

After he spent nearly 2hrs going over the car and found not 1 fault with it

We went to Yeadon Way Garage He fueled her up handed over the keys & money and waved her goodbye and he was on his way to Liverpool to the ferry back home

Hope all goes well for the New owner he's adding the Rouse to his Private Collection of Rare Cars

I very much Doubt many Folk will see this car again as he doesn't follow the RS scene at all lets just hope it doesn't get forgotten about and he decided to join the RS scene alittle so folk can appricate such a rare Cosworth
