Default RS500 no 1

If you have got any money left over from Christmas you could buy the no 1 RS 500 which is for sale through PPM in Milton Keynes for £119,950 !!

Was going to say this car is a bit of a patch work quilt, as much as I love and live Fords, RS, Cosworths etc these are just not a 120k car to me.

I’d rather have this for less than half the asking price of that shonky old ford Sierra lol 😂

one of these at some point is going to be the next car for me I think

If it had a better following in ford circles without the speculation and odd history then it might be considered a good place to keep some money by some people (not me)

can you not retrofit the 7 seats anymore like the old C5?

what a way to make your passengers sick, facing backwards with 700bhp

The No1 RS500 has some story behind it. Hasn't it been reshelled.

That Audi is nice but I couldn't afford the oil filter for it ha ha. They will be a fortune for parts.

my 2 piece Brembo front discs are 694 each and that's from euro car parts.... on the plus side genuine air filters are only £27 for the pair from the main dealer ....

im not sure if the madness is the price asked for 1980s ford sierras or what you can actually get for a fraction of the cost.....for me it would be the audi rs every time....

Unfortunately the rs tax has created a bubble and there will be a few that can pay that amount so when someone does have one to sell they think they can demand a higher rate.....I'm sure we have all tried to buy something and been told "well one sold for x amount last week".

Realistic sales are out there but most sellers want there retirement fund bumping up.

I'd love a 3dr but 35k plus for some of the ebay rubbish is shocking....escorts seem to be about the same now, 35k and theres some stunning looking cars ...weather they are though is another thing.
