Default Fez RS1800's

Is it just me or has their popularity grown recently, i seem to be hearing more and more about these cars and before I bought one I dont think id ever seen another one. Are these cars more talked about recently or is it just because ive taken more notice now that I own one?

The 2nd option.

I've always noticed more/heard more about my model of car once I've bought it.


Cheers,

If there was ever a car that a mk5/mk6 RS2000 owner was happy to see next to theirs, its an RS1800 Fiesta, or failing that, an RS Turbo Fiesta


I personally really like both versions

I've not seen one around my way for years, but it is because your taking more notice of them now you have one

I used to hate it, I'll buy a new car thinking there is none about in my area then I will see loads

basically rs1800 fiestas came out when ford uk was struggling to sell performance cars due to the recession and the car theft chaos that banged up insurance prices.

yopu could buy cosworths for less than diesel models as not many people could afford the insurance. infact it was only the very rich the very stupid and car dealers with trade insurance that covered anything who drove cosworths in like 92-94.
