Is it just me or has their popularity grown recently, i seem to be hearing more and more about these cars and before I bought one I dont think id ever seen another one. Are these cars more talked about recently or is it just because ive taken more notice now that I own one?

 

I no where there is 1 on somebody's front garden been there 2 yrs not moved.

 

The 2nd option.

I've always noticed more/heard more about my model of car once I've bought it.

ive always liked them, my mate bought a new one back in 93, then another lad i know bought it off him. i loved it

 

as above ,once you own one there everywhere lol... bit rare though... think theres about 150 odd that have been spotted compared to over 1000 frst's...

 

If there was ever a car that a mk5/mk6 RS2000 owner was happy to see next to theirs, its an RS1800 Fiesta, or failing that, an RS Turbo Fiesta


I personally really like both versions

 

I've not seen one around my way for years, but it is because your taking more notice of them now you have one

I used to hate it, I'll buy a new car thinking there is none about in my area then I will see loads

 

My dad has had his for a few years now uses it every day for work! i have been taking it to shows and track days for the last few years while my mk2 is off the road

basically rs1800 fiestas came out when ford uk was struggling to sell performance cars due to the recession and the car theft chaos that banged up insurance prices.

yopu could buy cosworths for less than diesel models as not many people could afford the insurance. infact it was only the very rich the very stupid and car dealers with trade insurance that covered anything who drove cosworths in like 92-94.

 

there is one on my street...been there a couple of weeks now untouched
