If its got weeds and grass growing through it, £100 wont be far off i imagine? Assuming it doesnt start/drive?

it will need a lot of welding at that age if its been abandoned for a while, if your planning on putting it on the road you could just be buying yourself a money pit.

you can pick up a tidy taxed and tested RS2k from anywhere after £1200, so offer peanuts as they are worth peanuts.... Great cars though, very under-rated

Are we talking about a FWD or RWD RS2000?

Cause it sounds like the people replying are thinking you mean a 90s k plate not a 70s one!
