What rs cars you had ? And what was the one you liked the most ?

I loved my s1 and rs1600i the most. Saff Cossy was fast but abit big in my eyes.

I have had a fiesta rs turbo, a mk6 escort rs2000 and a sierra cosworth, I was unlucky with my fiesta and had numerous small problems which made it unreliable, the rs2000 I loved and wish I still had it tucked away, the sierra I still have and hopefully will never part with it.

My S1, a S2 which was bought to sell and deliberated with a white 3 door some years back (but glad I didn't in the end for various reasons).

Didnt know you had an RST Sticky!

Ive never owned an RS, If I did it would probably end up being a mk1 FRS, but even then id rather own other cars then one of those.....

Loved my s1
Loved my rs1600i but needed more power
Saff Cossy just felt big and heavy if if it was putting out 350 bhp

Iv been looking at rs turbo s2 but Maybe I'm just better off with the memory's of my s1 from a few years ago.

just the one ive got now wich is a s2 based mk4 popular. not strictly an rs but goes like one and sounds like one. most rewarding car ive ever owned. not huge power but enough for fast back roads. want a 3dr completely std at some point but would be happy with a s1.

4x4 saff cos is a great car, best all round cosworth, especially if its a facelift with leather & aircon. mk1 FRS is a good car as well, very under rated.

Had a fair few RS's now - always wanted a 3dr over a Sapphire so only had the one cossie

Favourite RS Turbo was my S1 it drove like a brand new car it was a shame i had to sell.

I would never part with my Sierra but would really like an Escos or FRS MK1 as another toy
