Hi Guys,

Have had my series 1 RST for about 4 or 5 months now, so I thought id better get signed up. im not sure on the history but theres alot of photos of her floating about so I assume she has been about on some of the owners clubs! In the process of replacing engine parts at the moment but by bit and im using her daily until her respray in march 13. ( all booked in ) she was suffering from a cold start problem among many other problems but I have fixed several items ( alternator, wiring, inlet, injectors, metering unit ect. She had some rsowners tax disc holders in her when I got her!.

My first propper owners club so I apologise if I havent done this correctly!

Cheers

Tom

Hey Tom, this is my old car, glad your taking care of it, due to lack of time and now loosing my workshop due to grandad selling his house she had to go . Still I had a great summer in it this year and attended a few shows. Had the car on and off for 6 years since 2005 and in between times have tried a lot of other Rs and St Fords, only car that came close to this was my FRS mk1, but family man now so we have a golf and an Audi. But still want to get back into ford scene after being a ford nut for 14 years. My mrs keeps asking me, what we going to ford fair next year in? Lol my dad just bought a new Transit Sport so might take that
