I had a rs turbo at 19 then a rs2000 cossie rep at 20, although i loved the cossie rep it will never be the real thing and i have always missed my rs turbo

My insurance for rs turbo at 19 was 2.5k 3rd party fire n theft, thta was 9 years ago wud hate to know what it is now,lol

wHAT 2 .5k oh my god i will definately not be able to afford that . was thinking i could insure it on classics lol for like 150 a month but i suppose im young for that ? hmmmm will have t find insurance before , i was going to buy it 1st then find insurance lol

Mrs T

As your quite young you really dont need that much power at the moment, why dont you get one and do it up yourself..

How many years no claims have you got?

rs turbo defo if you get the insurance

scholesyy

without a doubt the rs turbo. i hate cars that are pretending to be something they aint. even if it looks an exact replica - ur gonna feel a plank when summut trys to race u and u got no power when u put ur foot down!

faisal

i aint got any claims clean license looking 4 someting quick as im used to my dads cossie. want either but cheap insurance is what id have to find lol

faisal

this forum is so helpful compared to others this is the best by far

Mrs T

I dont think your going get a cheap insurance not without any no claims

faisal

hmmmm if i find sum1 with a traders insurance then all sorted lol

jammerrs

dont get either pal, no offence but at 19 and if you only have 2k to spend keep what youve got or get a little hatch, a rst will be a shed for that price and insurance is just stupid.

get a fezza xr2i or a mk4 escort that you can build into a rst gradually

faisal

iv found really cheap insurance through a mates insurance policy yAAY lool anybody got a nice s2 for sale? prefer it with zvh engine running good power ?

y0u will be doing well to get a big powered zvh series 2 in good condition for 2k mate!

Escos reps always look shit IMO as the originals are more sierra than escort so nothing looks right.

A zvh engine is no better than a well looked after/rebuilt cvh unit. My best advice would be to get someone who knows them inside out to go with you as 90% for sale will not be worth buying IMO. I have bought loads in the past and they are loads of fun but if you buy a shed you will have loads of heartache!
