Forgotten how good they are but know I love them
I haven't owned an rst for 2 yrs and it's 3 yrs since I sold my favourite series 2. I toying with the idea of buying another one next yr. It would be a daily so wouldn't be mint but I would price myself away from tat. I currently own an octavia vrs 1.8t. It's a fast reliable sturdy car but not paticularly exciting. I knew before buying it that I prefer older cars character but must admit I like refinement of a newey.anyway my question is do you think I would get into rs and think it's a slow crude thing compared or would I have that special feeling again. The answer is u prob don't know but has anyone gone from a new car to an old one? How did it feel?

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
i went from an evo 5 to a 3 door and loced it so much more than the evo from the second i drove it, same as when i got my s1 after my rs2000 4x4! olser cars have a raw feeling that newer reliable cars lack, nothing like thrashin about in a 20 year old car when every one else has scoobs and evos

sometimes though they should remain a good memory, I bought a S2 RST a couple of yrs ago after i had not owned one in a few years (i had 3 previous) and i wish i hadnt i did have found memorys of my RST's untill my last one, gearbox was like stirring porridge no power steering broke down down 5 times with different faults every time all in the space of 2 months so it got sold and i will never have another RST just to old and unreliable for me now.
I would honestly keep the VRS mate if you are going to be usued everyday
