Looks good but I always wonder why people throw so much money at replicas when they could just start with a genuine rs in the first place? Not having a dig as it looks really good but I just prefer cars to look more or less factory just with silly power

many many moons ago i had a xr3 that had never seen a welder all original panels until my mate lent it and crshed it within 500 yards of my home looks a good buy the rs bit on the log book is just two letters chap, just use it for what it is a mk3 turbo a tidy rot free one

I wasn't knocking the car at all as it looks superb but if it was mine I would want it to look like a standardish xr3, as thats what it is, with the power to show up most cars. Maybe i'm just jealous you got such a bargain
