Default New RS1600i owner

Hello there folks! I just stumbled across your website and this fantastic RS1600i part! Well chuft to find so many RSi owners on here should be a good help with my project!

I am in the middle of rebuildin my Sunburst Red RS1600i, the reg is MVL 686Y. Its spent most of its life in Wales (unlucky for it) but is now with me up here in Aberdeen. I have the thing stripped to the bare shell and in the bodyshop!

I have bought a fair old amount of bits wich are slowly taking over my flat lol!

All I really need now is a tailgate a door and a dashboard! So if you have any

I'll get some pictures soon!

Hi M8ty. Check out the section on the Rs owners club website. We've all gone over there now.

Good luck with your resto.

There is a user on the RSOCBB called Tricky Dicky who has as tailgate for sale!

Just noticed that the North East of Scotland RSOC show is at the Aberdeen ECC (about 500yards from my house) at the start of May so this has now become my absolute target!

Some time away I'm afraid but should be good to roll it out the garage and into the show! No doubt that where all the faults will be found by the experts.

Yes I would like to get hold of the stickers! for my lovely pop out rear windows

Oh here's a question for you folks! My car is a non custom! Has basically no extras but heres by dilema the car has not very much history certainly no bill of sale and I have all the optional extras siting in my lock up.

So the question is should I keep it the way it is with the sunroof as the only extra or slap them all on?
