EVERY s2 I see on pistonheads is "rust free"
Why is it £2000 then? Did I spend a lot on mine for nothing

 

you will only sell a car for a certain price if some one is willing to pay that for it, looks like someone found you

 

seems to me that all rs cars are rust free...majority of them look good on the outside. thng is with escorts if they have a decent battery tray and fuse box then a lot of people call them mint..(not saying everyone btw)..as long as the battery tray is ok it doesnt matter that the floor is rotten! lol

 

No, you're getting it wrong.

RUST FREE means you're getting the rust for free.

 

LOL

 

haha

 

RS cars, rust free, are you having a laugh - i had an S2 RST and the majority of the car was rust! i wouldnt touch an S1 or 2 if you paid me.

 

thats a bit ott....there are plenty of rust free examples out there...1s that have been pampered by their owners...thing is you will pay high prices for cars that really are rust free.. just because the majority are shit boxes doesnt mean they all are

 

No, but I wonder how many of those cars that the owners think are rust free have the obligatory rust in the sunroof cavity?

Mine is one of the most solid RST's I have seen, the 2 area's of rust were caused by me. There is absolutely no grot underneath, but it still didn't escape the rust in the sunroof cavity.

 

most rsts are gonna have some rust about them, gotta remember the newest one is what 16 years old now? i looked at one which was claimed at no rust and there was rust on windscreen pillar, both wings, tailgate and roof?!?!?!???!

 

MINES RUST FREE....Had one of the last MK4 shells from ford in 98 and was only £2400

 

Lucky man! How did you manage to get hold of that?!

 

Got it from a lad in Sheffield and i knocked him down from £2800 LOL

I've not found any rust....The underside is STILL IN PRIMER!!!

 

for me then
