I'm 29 and own a S2 at the moment. Owned an RS1600i when I was 19, and had 3 series 2's since then. Can't get enough of em.
I also get ribbed by workmates for being a boy racer, and the one thing that REALLY pisses me off.............
"NO! ITS NOT A FUCKING XR3i !!!"

Im 29 not too far off 30 now
and I have just bought another RS Turbo
This is my fourth one and I bought my first one when I was about 23, apart from the 4 RS Turbos ive owned I've also owned the following list of fords thru my 20's
1 2wd Cossie
3 XR2's
1 XR2i
1 XR4x4
1 XR4i
1 Escort Series 1 Looker
1 Sapphire Cossie Looker
So with the RS Turbos thats 13 Performance Fords in my 20's and I bet there's people worse than me.
As you can imagine my missus loves it

I own a Series 1, i first owned it when i was 19 and bought it back 4 years later. I'm 25 now and yes i've had the "boy racer" comments from mates and family, they just don't get it. A mate of mine thought i'd put the bodykit and wheels on myself.....aftermarket kit...
so it goes to show what people really know about rs cars.

wise words i once got told: if you're going to buy a cossie: make sure you have twice the amount of the asking price: that way if anything fails, you will be able to afford to replace the bit with the right part & not some cheap replica part.

I'm 19 and looking to get a Series 2... Be 20 when i get one (only a month away
)
Had a focus for the last year but they're so mass produced there's nothing 'special' to them, but after all the shows last year deep down i've had my heart set on a Series 2
Just out of question - who are all you 20year olds (and under) insured with? I've had a quote of around Ł1000 but i reckon its really pants cover and i doubt they'd touch any mods
Cheers
Will
