Why dont you just read the magazine, gives you all the info n pics there

Dealer special (ie not an official ford car), not a turbo as standard, just normal injection, i guess based on, what, a XR3i?

Comes with the gayest of gay (but cool when it was new) rattlesnake bodykits.

Id be embarsessed to be seen in that thing

Yea, the guys about 70 by looks of his face, must be pulling the hos down his old peoples home

Looks in proper mint condition, shame about the shocking bodykit, where it joins to the rear lights it looks sooo stuck on

And the reflective rear panel

I bet the Capri lovers like it tho, same sorta "cool 15years ago" attraction to it

Is the kid who owns the other grey S2 in the mag off PF? He looks about 12years old (I would say he looks like a 12y/o rent boy, but i know pics always make people look really bad, lol)

These were design by dagenham motors with fibre sports....which then went on to be named as "rattlesnake" the RS1900i was based on an XR3i then turbo'd by TURBO TECHNICS.
I have the magazine featured in my garage for sale ! no runner as was sitting in the numptys garage since 1993 ! and the bloke in the magazine was a total tit lol
I was given this by he's dad to sell ! it would make a fortune in the right hands etc....i just want rid for the room lol
