While we're....
 
on the subject of rare cars, any body heard of a limited edition S2, apparently fitted with a 1900 block from the factory, twin deck rear spoiler (XR4i Style) and with gold badgings. RS1900?

Our kid saw one back in the day, 92/93 anbody else heard of these?

The Sludge Feb 18, 2005 07:27 PM

nope

Stavros Feb 18, 2005 07:32 PM

its called a "modified car" mate, most of us own them ;)

seriously, thas no limited edition

Billabong Feb 18, 2005 07:34 PM

Sounds like a 'dealer special', most weren't 1900's at all but were stickered up as RS1900's with a Rattle Snake body kit, the rear spoiler looking similar to an XR4i one.....

There's an RS1900 in our April issue :top: Due out next month.

It had the spoiler and the body kit and was made in limited numbers but it was a N/A 1900CVH under the bonnet

Mint FRST Feb 18, 2005 08:11 PM

Rember seeing 1 year`s ago haven`t ever seen another ! Anybody know how many produced? Surely quite rare? :DD:

boXXer Feb 18, 2005 11:19 PM

anyone got a piccy of one?

RSCAT Feb 18, 2005 11:30 PM

yep remember those, defo rattlesnake kits. not nice kits imo.

AGAR-COSWORTH Mar 7, 2005 08:59 AM

I'd never heard nor seen an rs1900 before the article in PF this month - did get me wondering about the truth of the article but the PF guys are usually no bullshitters, and its now evident that there were some made.

Mayby because they look so bad (IMO ;) ) that no-ones really wanted to talk about them much.

I guess its as rare as a Mondeo RSi

Oranoco Mar 7, 2005 09:11 AM

I remember fitting a Rattlesnake bumper to my RS after seeing Max Power's RS Kicker. :oops: Oh the shame :oops:

It's Czech Mate Mar 7, 2005 09:15 AM

Dagenham Motorsport Dealer special..........Fibretechnics made the kit

Itsmeagain :blabla:

Oranoco Mar 7, 2005 09:18 AM

Didn't the article claim the Rattlesnake kit was a copy of this cars kit?

Don't know whether this is true or not as I have no knowledge off these cars but the Performance Ford chaps rarely steer us wrong with their content :top:

Martyn Mar 7, 2005 09:36 AM

The Rattlesnake kit was a copy of the Fibresports one that came on the original RS1900 limited edition.
I saw the one in PF at Jamsport when it was being rebuilt, proper retro style :cool:
