Default Who's RS has been owned by a famous person???

Anyone have any RS that's been owned by a famous person at some point in it's life? Would prefer not to hear endless replies about the black princess dianna S1, i think even my gran knows that story.

Surely Clarkson is the only one who would admit it.

I'm guessing he tops the list oddly.

Liam Howlett from the prodigy had a white Escos, and Leeroy had a grey Saph. don't the reg's but i'm sure a bit of detective work could dig them up.

Contrary to urban legend Leno does not own an RS200.

Over here everyone into cars says "Jay Leno has a car like mine". Even some Merkur guys swear he has one.

No.

I'm sure he'd own an Escos or an RS200/RS500 before a Merkur. LOL. Those three are the only ones allowed in the USA right now. Oh and old Escorts. Anything 25 years old. Fastest Ford he has in the SHOgun.

Hmm...

http://www.brainkiller.it/prodigy/liamprofile.html

He [Liam Howlett] used to drive a Ford Escort Cosworth, but he had to get rid of it because the police kept on stopping him because they thought that the car was stolen. (Cops, filmed on location nearest to the local donut shops.) And he had the engine so highly tuned that it was seven times over the legal emissions limit!
