Hi just bought my new toy caspian blue 16i late 83 on a Y 62,000 all mot`s full history and it`s top been looking for one for ages it`s had 8 owners great body i love it.

 

Nice one, get some pics up pronto

Didnt fancy the 1700t one then?

 

Hi Graphite no not really this is spot on can`t do pics yet but if you go on rsoc forum look under rsi guy called diesel2000 there are pics of it are you part of the rsi on tour gang is a would like to join if you can help cheers.

 

Just seen it on the RSBB, looks mint

Im not part of the RSi on tour crowd yet (need a working RSi first ) but speak to Cosevo on RS1600i.net he'll sort you out

 

Here you go buddy, enjoy it. Guted that I had to sell it but you seen how much I loved my S1. Have fun in it Daz mate and hope to see you at some shows next year!! It was a pleasure owning it and its a car ill always be proud of!










I told you that you were in for a treat before we even left my house mate, glad you were pleased!

Hi DAZZER, looks very nice and very clean.

Hi paid a lot but VERY TIDY loads of history all mot`s and service history, going to show it next year in novice class only thing that is not original is exhaust

 

Gorgeous.

Speaking as someone who has owned loads of Mk3 Escorts and RSi's it is always cheaper to buy a more expensive mint car to start with than to try and restore one. That one looks well worth the money.

BTW the guys on the RSOC BB are in the process of getting replica mild steel "original" exhausts made for a reasonable price...

 

Thats very true as long as you can find the right car, there's always the risk of getting one that has been 'restored' only to find its full of bodges

Mines needs alot of work doing to it but after viewing other RSi's i decided i'd rather spend the money on mine, so at least i'll know its gone together right. Besides you only have one life, you cant spend your money when your 'brown bread'

 

awesome RS1600i

 

lovely car mate

 

Hi All thanks for the nice comments but still looking for some previous owner info.

 

i've seen this on rsowner'sclub , i think it's a absolute stunner , you should be very proud of that

 

Did you manage to contact the guy I bought it from via Ebay Daz?
