Look forward to seeing it mate!

 

Thinking about a cosworth engine??

 

£800 to get it mot'd mate???????

 

thats what i thought,must have been like a siv.....

 

£800 is alot for an MOT mate,what did it need???

 

Yea tell me bout it mate, needed two new sills, fuel tank, both rear archs, floor panle, hand brake, brake pipes and a few other little things, i know this cause a striped the car to save more money

Worth every penny lol.

 

Holy shit mate!!! is it really worth spending all the cash on it??

 

Wait till am finished whit her mate she will be

 

Glad to see its getting the works bud...part of me is wishing i kept her...well that is untill i seen what you spent on an mot!

 

Yea cant wait till she is done mate, lol least ya saved your self cash eh.

Never gonna sell this car even when i get my skyline r33 or evo 5 would not be worth it, besides fallen in love whit her

 

I think you have just done what we all wish we never did, fallen in love with our RS Turbo's.

Can be the only reason we spend so much on them.

Good to see one being rescued tho!
