I still love the rs2000, They are cracking motors...............

Yes they are a little under powered with 150bhp but there have been some serious developments with these cars over the past few years. ( keep an eye out at FordFair )

I would love another one but finding a nice clean one is proving really difficult.

Cool, think they are the same set as I've searched for a while for another set in ford fitment.

Was in gold but now in anthracite, just need new 'BBS' badges.

Very nice Steve....

Always preferred that shape with the bonnet bulges to the newer shaper RS2K.

I had one exactly the same, not as clean obviously but I must say I didn't find it exactly slow, mine was around 170-180 due to a few easy mods and I found it quite quick and defo a lot of fun.

Not a lot, exhaust, decat, cams, chip and air filter.

Got 2 RS2000's myself, MK5&MK6.

Exactly same as ginge said with egr valve removed. Made that power no problem. Was as fast as my good spec series1. The only thing I didn't like was it sounded really raspy
